Hey Jacqui

I have been here with you.  I was at a point several times where I considered this.  And I want to tell you that it definitely is not the answer.  It doesn't stop the pain...it just stops you.  The pain will then be your legacy as the people you leave behind would never get over it.  I assure you of that.

I am going to give you three hotline numbers:

1-800-273-TALK (8255 )

 1800-784-2433  

 1800-799-4889

Call any one of them if you need to.  I went down the list of these numbers until I found someone who could help me.  And they did.  Thank goodness.  I was thinking straight and talking to someone helped me to think more clearly and rationally.  Depression can distort your thinking.  Sometimes you just need a good sounding board...someone to listen...to get back on your feet again.

I am concerned about your list.  I want you to tell someone who is close to you about this list.  Or at least that you are having thoughts about all this.  If you can't do that right now...please call one of those numbers.

You are important.  You matter.  There are many opportunities for you.  You just have to hold on.  This bad time is going to pass.  Please do not limit your choices and options to none.  I want you to stick around.  It is worth it.  YOU are worth it.

Okay?

Please come back and tells us how things are going.  I want to hear from you here.
