2 Comments on “4 Myths About Suicide”

  1. Most accurate article I’ve ever seen. As a combat vet with severe PTSD/depression/anxiety I’ve experienced suicidal ideation for years. I take meds for it. The thoughts aren’t real, they are a result of bad brain chemistry and the meds help with that.

    I have extended my life by not having anything in my home that would make suicide easy or painless. No guns, no sharp knives, no ropes. I’m sure there is a way to do it around here somewhere but the more complicated it is and the more pain the less likely anyone would suicide. That’s why guns are the most popular way. Quick, no backing out, no pain.

    Part of my pain is that I came back emotionally dead, unable to connect with people. Very difficult to live with no real relationships in your life.

    Great article for once, I agree with every word.

  2. Two horrible marriages to narcissists. Two attempts. Two courses of treatment focusing on DBT, and the right medication for depression and severe anxiety/panic attacks and PTSD from the relationships. Now focusing on learning why I end up attracted to such twisted men. And happy, oh, so happy to be alone.
