living with suicide, crisis, disability, grief, abuse, suffering:
across the spectrum of mental health needs (crisis to maintenance), support in a community with living experience is invaluable. below are trusted and verified support resources.
my currect experience of suicide: i do anything thats not suicide-moment to moment-using time through days. i live in fluid intensities of suicide that i manage. for me, suicide doesn't go away. denying suicide is denying a reality which does harm to my health and is something i cant survive. i find limitlessness in suicide. i'm only doing it if its fun. both/many things can be true.
healing requires suffering. it hurts. i find healing in reflection of shared suffering. i find health and support in the communities below.
