I’m really depressed this week having suicidal thoughts and just feel numb. The only person who makes me happy is away and I just feel so useless that I can’t find a job or stick with one. It’s so difficult to find anything that can support me both mentally and physically. I attended one interview and had panic attacks all week leading up to the event. I have to do a sitting down job because otherwise I’d be in crippling pain. But sitting down jobs require mental capacity and how am I meant to focus when my head is constantly racing and I’m getting suicidal thoughts. I have applied for therapy and work support so it’s just a waiting game, as usual. I just think to myself what is the point of living to suffer. But I’m too scared of death to actually die. It’s like living to just survive it’s such a waste of time, I wake up to go back to bed again and all I want to do is sleep to escape reality.

      Have you tried calling the Samaritans? I've called them myself on a number of occasions. It might also help to talk to your GP. Maybe you have a friend to talk to? If not we are all part of a big fibromyalgia family and we are all there for you ❤️

        @Jimaine no I haven’t, I find calls difficult I prefer to text or email but I guess I could try, thank you for the suggestions. Unfortunately getting a GP appointment is impossible right now, I have so many things to talk to the doctor about but the receptionists think they’re gods gift and can pick and choose who gets to see the doctors. I have one friend but she doesn’t understand, but luckily I do have a supportive mum and boyfriend. Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot ❤️

          @BrokenPotato I know exactly what you mean about doctors receptionists. The number of times I had problems at my old GP you wouldn't believe. I hope you're doing better now ❤️
