I have been thinking about maybe asking someone for help lately. I've never been a person that would tell people about my feelings or if I was struggling, even when it first started. I just always felt like I would overcome this alone, or make the decision to ctb by myself. And then I would tell everyone everything through a letter or something.
Now that I've been thinking about reaching out to someone, maybe even my parents..(?) I keep on imagining how I would do that and what they might say. And I notice that I am just incapable of asking for help.
I have talked to online friends before that didn't know who I was about wanting to ctb, and the moment they'd say something like "I'm so sorry, you're not alone", I would just get so angry and fed up (even though it was me that asked for help). I can't even explain what makes me so pissed off, I just blame them for not being able to actually help me even though they might be doing their best. And I get mad because I feel like they don't understand what I'm feeling, which is kind of a huge thing to ask for anyway and makes me into such an asshole.
I really don't like this about myself and I'm very embarrassed but I do really want to talk about it after about 4 years of keeping all this for myself. And for that I need to be able to share things without being an idiot.
I've thought about maybe trying to "ctb", but very half-heartedly, so that I definitely won't die but I won't be able to hide it. That way, people would notice and maybe try and help me no matter what bullshit I say.
I get that this might not sound like a good solution at all but I know that I will never be able to tell someone about wanting to die without having something "to show for it".
