To clarify, this is note a suicide note, rather the opposite.

I´ve struggled with mental illness for half a decade now. In the past month or 2, I have been going through what has probably been the worst depressive episode of my life. I´ve made half-hearted attempts before, but this time I was actually planning my own death. Reading up on methods, gathering the materials, etc. But for the last week or so, I´ve began to feel myself emerging from the depressive episode. I don´t feel happy, per se...I´m just not miserable anymore. I´ve decided that this time I will actually try to recover and get better. I don´t think it´s possible for me to ever completely recover from depression. But I can at least try. Actually reach out for help instead of isolating myself.

If you guys don´t see my on this forum for a long time, it´s probably not because I´ve CTB´d, but because I´ve haven´t.

I found an unlikely friend group in this website. I could not have asked for a more understanding and supportive community. Ironically, the people on this website have helped me more than any therapist or medication. Thank you.

This forum is not pro-suicide. It's pro-choice. I want you to find happiness and peace by making your decision. I'm so happy, for you OP. I hope your happiness grows and your sadness fades. I hope you heal from the pain.

True, this place is an oasis of sanity in an insane world, with a level of caring and support not easily found IRL. Wishing you all the best.
