People would try to stop me but not try to actually help me

yup. I know they'd try to lock me up. which wouldn't actually make me feel any better or help solve any of the problems. in fact it could traumatize me further and make it worse. like it already did

Im in the same boat— wish I could tell my boyfriend before it's too late. I think I'm getting close though, he knows I'm acutely suicidal and that I have SN…

Yeah, most people (including Psycs and Docs) tend to go into fix it or crisis mode pretty quickly. When you just want to talk only about how you feel. Most "treatments" inadvertently encourage you to shut the f--k up.

That's exactly my experience. every single time I've tried asking for help or just talking about how I felt resulted in them trying to call the cops on me. which taught me to never talk to anybody about how I feel. kind of ironic

Me too. I never really talk to anyone I know about my suicidal desires, but I do often try to talk about my mental illness and how it affects me. Unfortunately for me though they don't seem to take it seriously enough to even think I need help. It's like people really don't wanna care or even attempt to help at all, until it's too late and all they can do is wish they could have done something sooner.
