Struggling with Suicidal Thoughts and Work

TW // s*icidal thoughts . . . . . . I'm having really bad s*icidal thoughts right now and I don't know what to do. My mom is planning on helping me get onto disability for my mental health but I feel like I'm already at my breaking point and can't handle working anymore. I want to just quit and do doordash but I really don't want to burn my bridges at my current job because I really like it and even if I put in my two weeks I probably won't get my lead position back if I leave and then come back. I don't know how to stay strong. I've been fighting this battle for far too long and I don't know how to hang on anymore. Any advice is welcome and I could really use someone to talk to about all of this if you want to message me.

      I know what it feels like to want to end things. I try to remind myself that suicide affects far more people than just the victim and that, while my mind tells me that I want to die, I really dont; I really want the pain and suffering to end. There is so much that goes into feeling this way. So many emotions and numbness at times. My DMs are always open.

      Wanting to kys is an escape response to an overwhelming situation. Try to treat yourself as gently as you can, and maybe talk to your boss about taking a temporary leave to get a break? I don't know what you do if that would even be possible, but at one of my jobs my supervisor had to go on a medical leave for a couple months and it was fine

        @ajar idk I don't think I have fmla yet because I've only been at this job for 6 and a half months and I'm afraid they'd demote me if I left again because I have a lead position so it's really important for me to be there.

        @Skipeople thank you that's true the only reason I've held on for so long is because I don't want other people to be sad about me. Like I have friends and my mom who would care even if my mom has a funny way of showing it sometimes.
