I almost died from an infection

I think my immune system got lowered because of the stress of going to hospitals for mental health emergencies for a week straight. Then a couple of days later I got sepsis and almost died. Went to the hospital again of course. Turns out I almost died from an ingrown hair.

If I just keep neglecting myself and stressing myself out somehow and I forget about going to hospital at all, then I'll definitely die soon. I don't even have to put effort into a suicide method anymore. I'm just gonna die anyway. Wow. Easy easy peasy peasy. Lemon. Squeeeezy.
I genuinely feel like i'm going insane. Like I've really genuinely lost it. I was telling the mental health nurses "If you let me go there's a possibility I'll kill myself" and then let me go because I didn't say I was going to kill myself for sure. Guess where I am at!!! The UK!!! Worst health care system ever!! What a poor excuse for a first world country.

that is truly terrible, I am also a sepsis survivor, I have been a nursing case ever since, I hope it did not hit you so hard, get well soon

how does one get sepsis? the idea of dying from disease appeals to me because it's so much more passive than actively trying to kill myself.

Idk I didn't give myself sepsis. My immune system was just lowered so much from the stress of the previous week that I got sepsis from what should have been a minor skin irritation, an ingrown hair. My health has been slowly deteriorating for nearly 2 years now. So it's not a very quick guaranteed suicide method lol.

I'm still 20 and we caught it early so I managed to recover in a day. But I can't believe I almost died from an ingrown hair
