Thank you for posting. It truly is a silent thing. The past few years have been very rough, and I’ve had moments of suicidal ideation recently. Not actively wanting to die, but not wanting to be alive, either. Very, very isolated. People who interact with me daily would be shocked; I just hide it. I’m not suicidal, but for the first time in my life, I understand what it feels like. It sucks.

ELT, I guess I would call it temporary depression, but for it was maybe 3 or 4 months in my life I dealt with depression and it is something people will not understand until they go through it. I've had thoughts, but I was never on the verge of doing anything to harm myself, however; I can completely understand how someone gets to that point.

For me, I had to force myself to get out and be active, which was extremely hard for me because I just wanted to lay in bed. I would avoid people as much as possible and that was not at all like me, but it is something a lot of people deal with.. Keep fighting! There is always brighter days ahead.
