Hi All:

Really glad to find this forum, looks like it's a solid forum, true to it's roots.

Well, as for my issue, I have so many damn feelings. I'll bipolar and my brain loves the depression side. Taken a lot of meds over the last 7 years and can't escape the darkness outside my door. To the outsider, I have a good life, wife who loves me, a good job, I help others a lot and I'm a major animal lover. The thing is I don't seem to feel anything but sadness, anger, self hate, and hopelessness. I still self harm to kill the emotions, even temporarily; and the damn suicidal thoughts flood me. I've hurt myself sense, geez, must be since 7 or 8 years old. I tried to hang myself before as a young teen, but screwed that up (obviously, duh...). Of course I fear it, but the real reason I don't do it, despite almost obsessing over it, it that I would hurt the people I love and who love me. I'd be a selfish bastard for that. I don't know what I'm saying. I just hurt and want it to go away, and I can't even run from it.

I'll continue to read the post in this site, if anything, it reaffirms to me tonight, that there's a lot of pain here.

Hi Sgm72. Welcome. I'm really sorry to hear that you lost your job. I hope you get the opportunity to let out what you want to let out today. You're welcome to PM me or some others around here, but probably better to PM others since I'm in my late teens. Take care, and thanks for sharing your thoughts....Alex

Well I've been trying to get everything in my head sorted but Im not coping very well,job wise is a disaster,I see my daughter less and less,OCD been the best dad I could possibly be but my daughters mum has remarries and now there a perfect family in which I see my daughter for a few hours every 4-6 weeks,apart from 2 short friendships I've been pretty much single for 5 years,and being in my own company every single day is tearing my hair out I don't want it to be just me week in week out,funny thing it to people on the outside I seem normal but and the instead I'm ready to explode,only thing to look forward to is I'm on holiday in 2 weeks scraped together going abroad on my own for the 5 yr running I'm trying to convince myself that it's the perfect time to end it.ive no one to interfere

Funny thing Is I'm shocked how long it is since I last wrote on here ,I know it's not my daughter ls fault but her new dad also has the same first bane as me so when she talks to me as Ste and then address the other one as her dad it really does rip me up,and know I've never reacted to it like I said she's only 7,as for groups I'm a/was a very keen martial artist for many years and my beliefs of martial arts had proberly kept me going to this point,but even now I look back in realising I've not step foot in the dojo for 8 months
