Suicide

I'm quite overwhelmed by all the support her blues. I have numerous dms. Complete strangers giving me their number to call and chat. I have an appointment at 1400. After that I may take some of you up on that pls. As I said in my initial post, bluemoon has always been my constant. I have quite an extraordinary story to tell which I think is beneficial for me to get out. I'll post in here later and I apologise if it seems a tad self indulgent but it's so weird you'll understand why I am where I am.. Thanks all. I'm feeling a bit of motivation and it's purely from you all. One poster said 'don't let the bastards grind you down'. Thats so right and that line just gave me the anger I needed. Why the actual hell should I let the evil of others destroy me. If nothing else I'm a blue and we never give up. Love you all and chat to few of you later.

You need to get stuff of your chest mate. Friends and even online forums are a great outlet for blokes. You have a lot to give to this world, I'm sure. I suffer from chronic depression and suicidal thoughts since childhood, despite being what some might see as a high achiever. Something I work on almost daily and probably will for the rest of my life, but it is never ever the answer. Nothing in this world is ever worth taking your life over.
 
This post GENUINELY made my day. I know one or two who have taken this path because they thought nobody cared and they couldn't have been more wrong.
The problem is that people firmly believe the world will be a better place without them. It seems so irrational but when you’ve been there then it makes perfect sense.
 
Suicide isn't logical.

Suicide is committed by all sorts of folks - rich or poor, famous or unknown, genius or dull-witted, athletic or clumsy - it's a disease of the brain.

A friend of mine whom I admired very much killed herself - at age 42 - with two teenage children whom she adored - and who was intellectually brilliant.

Were you or I in her place - of course we'd never kill ourselves - a life of relative wealth, 2 gifted children whom we loved above all else, numerous friends with whom we were in contact with on a daily basis.

I'm still gutted by my friend's suicide 4 years later and cannot understand why - save that some disease caused her such torture of the mind - that she ended up believing that death was preferable to being alive.

Don't even think posting your concerns or problems on here as self indulgent.

After my breakdown in 2019 and admitting to myself I had mental issues I posted on here telling almost complete strangers my issues.

The support I got from posters I didn't even know was tremendous and I realized I was not alone with my issues.

DON'T bottle it up. Talk talk and talk some more.

I know this place can get a bit mental at times but when things like this happens posters on here will rally round and always help fellow(and non fellow blues). I'll be forever greatful for the support and advice I got on here

Fucking hell, in tears here, of joy and identifying with the OP so very much. There's a world of help out there and just by opening up in your post you can see how many fellow men and women have or are in your shoes.

You're fucking loved mate, you might not see it, you might not feel it, but this universe man, it gives back 99% of the time.
 
Chin up, blue. I've never shared this outside of friends and family, but there was a rather large gap in my activity on blue moon May of last year. I made a serious attempt on my life the day before the 2nd leg of the UCL semi-final and spent the next week in the hospital. Although I've been dealing with depression and self-esteem issues for as long as I can remember the worst of the worst thoughts crept up on me in a hurry. I didn't do research and I didn't know what I was doing and thankfully I failed. I completely missed the semi as I had to be put asleep with a breathing tube shoved down my throat.

I hate sharing stuff about myself and I don't want to make this long and draining, but just know you are not alone. It was the stupidest thing I've done and to be honest it's something I'm reminded about pretty much every day as I have scars and nerve damage from it (nothing major though). On a lighter note I remember telling myself as I was rehabilitating that I just had to see how Erling Haaland would perform at this club. Well, you probably know the rest of this story lol!
