I feel bad. I want to die again, but I'm not sure if it will last.
:-(

The thought of ODing crossed my mind. :-(
I still probably don't want to die though, it is only temporary.
I don't feel all that safe though, i feel bad.
I won't die though.
I can't OD, I have to go to work tomorrow. Maybe mini OD. :-(
No, i can't.

A part of me has wanted to die all my life.
It is not impossible to live with it.
Leonard Cohen said something like 'I still am melancholy but it upsets me less', and he is 74.

I am in a bad way. I need to stop writing so opening about wanting to OD. It is manipulative and attention seeking. I need to get over myself. I feel like ODing on cold meds. I want to die for a while.
What is wrong with me?

I am not normally melancholy. I would say I am happy most of the time interspersed with feeling really bad for a while.
Sorry you are sad a lot Sigis.

Me too. It's a life's work.

Sometimes a sense of imposture, of fraudulence, grows on me, and then I am so embarrassed I want to die.

Thanks for chatting and replying to my post Sigismund. You have this I dunno how to describe, but like detached and full of wisdom way of looking at things.
It seems to de-escalate things.
I think I am OK now. I think I was triggered.
Anyways, I am definitely NOT going to OD, even mini OD. I just thought of it and it was scary, but thinking about it for a while does not mean I have to do it.
:-)

It's very easy not to do things. I've spent my life at it.
