Discussion Friend says if I put as much effort into getting better as I do planning and justifying my death then I would get better

I honestly feel confused. I wish I knew where to start with getting better. But I have been spending a lot of time on here recently. Is that right to do?

Whatever you think will help you get better than do it. I like the comfort of this website and being heard, but if being here makes you feel worse or stunts your recovery, I would not be on here <3

my husband tells me my delusions are my perfect justifications for killing myself.... they dont know how to relate to us or cope with what we are going through, so they come up with their own justifications. planning your death probably gives you a feeling of control and comfort, whereas getting better is a nonlinear, unclear and difficult process. they aren't equals in terms of the amount of effort they take, how immediately rewarding they are, and it doesnt address the massive holes in the mental health care system.

On this site there is a "recovery" section for those who want to stay here and are looking for advice or support with that, if that's what you are looking for. But if one wants to stay on suicide discussions then there is nothing wrong with that, it's a personal decision, we all have our right to cease existing after all.
