I had an attempt a few weeks ago, held a loaded shotgun in my mouth but didn't have the guts to pull the trigger. It's odd, things in my life have trended towards a positive direction or at least not a bad one. I'm moving to a new state to go to school and moving in with a friend that totally understands suicidal tendencies who is covering my rent for free. I'm going into hospice care because I really believe in the right to die in a humane way and want to make a difference. It's something I've been passionate about for a long time and we're finally going for it. Yet the call to try again is stirring in me and there's no real reason why. I'm not in pain, things are alright, we have a positive clear path yet I want so badly to hold that gun again in my mouth and taste death. I wonder if I really am sick if this is what mental illness is. Being a bit in love with self destruction and the idea of taking my own life
