Hey all,
First time positing in the "Recovery" section - my excuse is being intoxicated and allowing myself to entertain theoreticals/options, ya know? Explains the poor title too lol.
Anyways, here's part of circumstances that began at the start of this year through now in which I find myself after being 100% certain I was going to CTB:
- Withdrew 401((k), wanna say $32K for context
- Quit my job on the spot after being in corporate America for a decade
- Been vibe traveling basically, doing whatever I want whenever. There's been a lot of depression in there, don't get me wrong. But just allowing myself to DoorDash or try mutiple things on a menu, for example. There's been some luxury AirBnB stays and whatnot. As a result —>
- Maxed out all my credit cards, one of which I opened with the purpose and intent of spending and not paying back. In total it's probably $60K+
- Medical debt after an ER visit (no insurance, could be an easy waive) around $20K
But I think the reason for the post, most importantly, was me ghosting and being a total asshole to everyone in my life for years, but definitely extra so especially for the last year being of wanting to CTB. It's so much easier to cut people off than try to fake you're fine. So I'm wondering -
TL;DR: For those of you that dug a deep hole and hurt basically every person in your life, did they forgive you after you came clean about wanting to CTB? Or how did it go?
I've had a privileged life and am curious if, after sleeping on it, I decide to continue onward for the time being, what's going to happen next? I'd want to come completely clean about being suicidal and then be instantly forgiven for any and all actions against everyone and everytihing… but how is it actually going to go? Like I just want help and for it to be easy to reintegrate into society basically, but America's a fucking joke.
Thanks, y'all
