So I have a very sad story. It's honestly more sad than the majority here. I have a rare disease that is causing my connective tissue to break down rapidly. I was once an artist and an athlete and now no longer have the use of my hands or legs. I also cannot eat and have constant diarrhea like maybe eight times a day going to the bathroom. Another weird complication is every time I eat some thing my entire body burns my joints my nervous system. Additionally when I try to even take pain medication or steroids to reduce the inflammation it creates an allergic reaction in my body that elevates the pain. I am a biology teacher, I have my bachelors in it, I've studied so many mechanisms and diseases and frustrated that I don't even know what is causing this. It's frustrating also because so many people accuse me of having a psychological disorder rather than a disease. I have two auto immune diseases it's not impossible to have a third. I believe it was a strange reaction to medication I took in the past. The FDA always shove these under the rug. If I had my old life or just emotional problems without the physical agony I wouldn't be suicidal. Honestly I am angry at the people with able bodies. I am so jealous of anyone that can eat walk or drive. I don't understand how they can take it for granted. So it's hard to read other peoples reasons. I have also contemplated starving myself to death but that's a very long process. I'm already very thin due to the fact that eating is so painful. I have sodium nitrate but no antiemetic. With my reactions to medications I imagine that could be a very painful death for me since I'm so chemically sensitive. I also have a gun but I'm so afraid to use it. I thought about jumping in that also seems quite scary. The best method would probably be using a gun but I don't have hollow point bullets. This is just so unethical because I am a sane and educated individual who is just suffering a disease that will be terminal anyway since I can't eat. I've tried every medication available. They really should have been offering me end-of-life medication. I am to disable to get to Switzerland. Just so angry. I even asked my sister to help kill me and get me some heroin so I could overdose and she wouldn't. I am ashamed that I asked her. The government is forcing me to tear my family apart and destroy my relationships in my final months. I'm causing them so much anguish with my slow decline it's just not fair. I'm afraid of nothingness I want there to be an afterlife but I know it's probably just nothingness. I was such a successful human being and so proud of myself before all these diseases. I'm so alone. Just looking for people and support.
