should i stay hopeful ?

[glorp]

heya, first post here
At first, i thought i wanted to ctb once and for all, researching about my method of choice.
But after a few days lurking here, i keep asking myself if i really want to go, or maybe there's still hope somewhere ? i've been struggling with mental health for a good decade now, i tried a lot of therapists and medication, but nothing helped.
Do anyone have any advice on this, or maybe want to share some personal experience ?

if your still considered a young adult id wait to see if it gets better, a friend of mine who lives in the UK now told me to wait until I was 18 before i CTB to see if things got better.

i'd even say to maybe wait till you're around 25, at which age your frontal lobe is supposed to be done developping thus resolving a lot of mental struggles
i'm now in my twenties and if it means anything to you, things are far different for me that they were some years ago, maybe time really is the best medicine ?

No one can truly tell you the answer. It's for you to determine. If you're not ready, you're not ready, there's no rush to CTB.
