FIrst of all, I advice against lying to a therapist in general. However, my situation is objectively very bad with barely any hope. Two therapists gave me up thinking I am a hopeless case who is going to commit suicide. I tried 3 psychotherapies, over 25 medication, six clinic stays.

The first time I was in a psychiatry was after my first psychosis I was scared to open up about the abuse I endured. Noone explicitly asked me which was a big mistake I think. But I never lied. At the first day clinic I also was 100% transparent. However, one year later my second psychosis erupted and I understood that my illness is cyclic. I understood that this is my death sentence. Interestingly I am and was more or less 100% convinced that I am going to commit suicide eventually. And this seems to be a pathological thought. Might even a delusional thought. This deterministic stance on my suicide. It is something an intellectual i met pointed out. I am way too certain about my predictions. At the same time there are many predictors that I am going to commit suicide. This is also why my therapists gave me up. There are many very rational and good reasons that make it likely that I am going to commit suicide eventually. After my psychosis I read statistics how often someone with bipolar relpases. I had extreme pain after my psychoses. And I plan to commit suicide when the next one happens. Statistics show that many many relapses are highly likely. I am unable to cope with this extreme hellish torture (even one more time). I had extreme psychosomatic pain in my legs after the crashs. It felt like getting torn apart. I plan to commit suicide when that shit comes back. And many therapists told me there will come a time when major depression returns well that's simply the nature of bipolar disorders. I find this stunning. The intellectual was right I have a very deterministic stance on my future. I am very/completely convinced that I am going to commit suicide eventually. So much that it seems to be pathological. At the same time it is a rational assumption considering all the aspects of my suicidality. What could be an explanation? I think coincidence. This conclusion makes me wonder. It is fascinating for me. But also kind of sad. I could go on elaborating oneit. But this is not the topic of the thread.

After my realization that bipolar repeates in cycles I became very anxious. I wanted to avoid mania as good as possible. There developed a defense mechanism inside my mind and I am not sure whether that's a good thing. This still goes in the wrong direction. Maybe I should save this discussion for another thread.

When I understood that this pain comes back one day I knew I will have to commit suicide because the pain is unbearable. I started psychotherapy and when I was fully honest about the extent of my suicidality my therapist gave me up. She did not notice that to this point my desperation was partly influenced by depression and pessimistic thinking. I did not take antipsychotics to this time point and she did not notice that I was slightly paranoid. What a great therapists she is lecturer at college and has a PhD. After being given up I ended up in a mixed manic depressive episode and the pain was very extreme. But after some months the psychosomatic pain disappeared. All my therapists were surprised because we did not expect that. I hoped my story could have a happy end. This was a development I never expected.

I tried to work and immediately collapsed. But I recovered after stopping to work . Finances are one of my main reasons for my plan to commit suicide. I prepared to start college again. I was aware that I am very unstable and cannot stomach much stress. This was the last straw. I started my third therapy. I was fully honest except for one thing. I knew if I relapse and develop another psychosis this extreme pain will return. And well I wanted to commit suicide if that happens. This made me pretty anxious at the start of college. I was very scared to fail and relapse. We were a good team me and that therapist. But I did not tell him that I plan to commit suicide after my next psychosis. If the pain returns I won't negotiate my decision. Especially because my life prospects are horrible. I was able to stomach the first two semesters. (I only study part-time.) Then the therapy ended. He was really optimistic about my future. But I was aware that I am a time bomb because my next relapse is just a matter of time. The third semester was very difficult. I only study part-time but I am even too ill and unstable for that. I had to take my emergency medication more often z-medication (addictive sleeping pills) and benzos. It was very close and I almost developed a psychosis. My therapists were stunned how well I managed it. But honestly it was hell. I always knew if I break the pain returns and when the pain returns I am going to commit suicide. Things really started to crumble. I had a crush on a trans woman and tried to approach her. When I approach women I often turn paranoid and I sort of embarrassed myself. This incident haunted me the next semester.

During vacation I tried to decrease the tolerance of the addictive medication but it was not enough time. The big issue of the fourth semester was once per week college started at 8 a.m. I had to wake up once per week at 6 a.m. And this literally broke me. This is the extent of my illness. I am unable to wake up at 6 a.m. once per week without collapsing. I am bipolar sleep rhythm is extremely important. I turned pretty paranoid during that semester. I had to increase the frequency of taking the benzos. However, even during that semester withdrawal symptoms occured. It was torture. It was nightmarish. I am lost for words. Benzo withdrawal is almost as severe as heroin withdrawal. My anxiety was extreme and it triggered me so fucking hard to make an ass out of myself in front of the trans woman. It was hell on earth. Moreover, I despised the subject I had to study. Statistics made me so so fucking depressed. I don't know how I stomached all of that but I did. During the statistics exam I more or less collapsed. It was way more than a nervous breakdown. Not even the benzos helped. And my crush even witnessed that and thought of me once again that I am just insane. It was so humiliating. Still I passed the exam. During vacation I was on a withdrawal. All alone at home. No substitution. My psychiatrist did not believe I had withdrawal symptoms. Tbh this was such a stupid assumption. I should have received something to lessen the pain. I read The Pale King of David Foster Wallace that vacation it comforted me.

The fifth semester started. The withdrawal symptoms got less after months of torture. The inner pain was very extreme. I was extremely lonely and I always turned paranoid when I approached women. I met an extremely attractive woman (who knows whether she was interested probably not) we had a great conversation then I turned paranoid and ruined it. The pain was insane. Since I am taking anitpsychotics I barely can cry. But I after this incident I often broke down in tears very strongly and without control. I increased the dosage of my antipsychotics. I felt more numb and I was so fucking thankful for feeling more numb. The inner pain was almost unbearable. I am often extremely agitated and college in general triggers the shit out of me. I don't know how but I also survived that semester. I had to do a very long paper during vacation. I barely had a break to recover. I became once again paranoid about a woman in my self-help group. It was the one more (of many thousand) narcissistic injuries I had to endure). Finally I became acute suicidal. I ordered SN. After all this insane torture. And the funny thing is. The really most fucking funny thing is. This is the good time period in my bipolar disorder. There will come again bad times. And major depression will return. And the extreme psychosomatic pain also. And I am not able to work and poverty will be my prison.

So I ordered the SN in April 2024. I considered to take it immediately. My friends pressured me not to do it. They wanted me to go to another day clinic. My sixth clinic stay. The staff was shocked about my condition. My sleep was horrible, my blood pressure too low, my pulse astronomically high, agitated, barely able to eat properly, malnutritioned, suicidal. After all of this well I was not transparent about my suicidality. I told them I was acute suicidal. prior to the clinic stay. I emphasized but now not more. And it was true most of the time I was not acute suicidal. On some days I was acute suicidal but I was not transparent in front of them. There were many positive things in that clinic. But it would have been way better if they had given me half of the amount my healthy insurance paid for this stay and I remained at home. I assume they paid like 10k. I live in Germany.

I am unable to stomach another rock bottom. And honestly all rational considerations in my case point to the fact that it won't get better. My parents retire soon. My whole family is scared about it. I think I might would have already taken the SN: But my mom had two strokes and I am scared to kill her in case I attempt. My biggest fear is she dies and I survive. In the clinic they knew I am well aware of my situation and I think they were scared about it. I was open that I consider to kill myself in October when college re-starts. I repeated that quite some times. However, at the last day I acted like I feel way better and I am so thankful for the clinic stay. I am optimistic about my future. It was such a fucking obvious lie. I was scared they would not welcome me back if I tell them nothing changed and I am still suicidal and desperate as fuck. The clinic stay helped like 10-20%. I am thankful for that. But it certainly was not worth 10 k.
The doctor (my therapist) who was unempathetic as fuck fully bought it. He wrote in the report after discussion about his future prospects the patient became more realistic about his future prospects. Lmao. He wanted to convince me welfare is not as bad as it seems. Well I plan to kill myself if I am on welfare. I cannot cope with that low amount of money. I am not used to it. Never was. I simulated poverty it is hell on earth. No I don't want to endure that. He also wrote my personality traits make my think so negative of my future. He even wrote in the report that he had to ask my mom whether my concerns about our finances are real. And well yes she fully agreed on it. Like WTF!

I was discharged last Wednesday. I try to stay away of planning suicide for a while. But I consider to do it in October. For my self-help group I am at college once per week. And it makes me cry. The notion going back to college makes me cry very hard (and very suicidal). But I also don't want to quit it and end up as a loser. It is a dilemma I might answer with suicide. I don't want to wait till poverty hits. I had hope for hypnosis. But I learned it can be damaging for psychosis patients. This was my last hope how to cope with the stress at college. I am so desperate. I met a borderline woman in that clinic and we text extremely much and intensive. This will end pretty pretty badly: She will probably ghost me when I am extremely dependent on her. The last time I had an argument with a borderline woman who I was dependent on was 2015. One of my relatives died after witnessing the argument and a new manic episode started. Well I am fucked. I am extremely fucked. I am scared to kill my mom if she has another stroke.

To be honest I think the only thing that can save me is Sanctioned Suicide. And I mean this seriously. I start to become very dependent on that borderline woman. Our bond becomes very strong. No other relationship could substitute that. I try dating apps to find a girlfriend. I hope maybe with someone from there I could have another close bond. So that the pain when she ghosts me is less. The thing is. Literally everyone would be overburdened with my neediness when she ghosts me. The pain will be unbearable. My solution: sorrow solution (who gets this reference?) SaSu has no time limit. I can talk as much as I want. (this thread proves it) And people are still listening to me. I think this is my only chance to survive when that borderline woman ghosts me. My life is so fucking fucked up, It is insane. I will cry out in the whole forum how much I miss her and all of that. How unbearable the pain will be to lose her. I never thought I would be as desperate enough to become co-dependent again. I still hope she can handle borderline better than the first borderline woman I texted with. However, she also hinted she likes to ghost people. And does this quite frequently. I am so scared.

Tomorrow I am invited to a friend's party. He made a second birthday party only for me because I could not come to his first because I was in a clinic. Honestly, my friends are one of my main reasons of not havinbg ctb so far.

Yes I am lying to my therapists. This is unbearable. My life is a living nightmare. This post is one example how much I benefit that there is no limit of space and time on SaSu. I have an extremely high need to express myself under pressure and pain. And well I am always in severe pain. Thanks for reading it. Will anyone read the whole thing?

I've lied to all of my therapists through omission or simply running out of time to say everything I needed to say. Oftentimes I forget what was actually troubling me if I like my therapist because seeing them was enough to temporarily make me happy but it never helped permanently fix any issues I had. Sometimes even when I did remember I would still not say because the sessions are only an hour long and that's not nearly enough.

I think lying to a therapist to get out of a hospital also doesn't seem wrong to me but that's just my personal opinion on that.

I got forced into therapy against my will due to my parents getting concerned with my non existent social life as well as me perpetually rotting away in my bed for the majority of the day hence I lied from basically the first session. I lied because I truly don't want to put in the effort for therapy or for "recovery" as I know that all I could ever want is death. I don't want to work on trying to live because I don't want to live. I have to pretend to be a normie in therapy and it's only been one session so far but it's fucking painful!! It reminded me of back when I had to take english classes and how it felt like an english class took 5 hours despite it only actually being one hour. Therapy felt the same thing for me and I refuse to engage with it truthfully because a therapist just isn't ready to be introspective about life yet. All therapists are sheeple NPCs who would say my views on life are irrational all because it goes against the status quo so, instead of dealing with the discomfort of dealing with their inability to understand the world, I'd rather just lie and pretend I'm similar to them too

Psych meds give diabetes, obesity and alzheimer's so i tried to stop them on my own and it worked. My doctor and relatives praise these meds so much i don't even dare proving them wrong.

Hence why I have access to AE but still looking for SN in France.
Feel free to contact me if interested.

Ive always lied to them the way I have seen it is psychological help but rather than seeking what is actually hurting deep inside. Which i cant tell them anything because there would be a drastic change to tell them im currently on the edge of ending it.

I didn't read all of your post but for me I'd break it down to two points.

If you genuinely want to recover and get well, we have to be 100% honest.

If we are ready to CTB then lying and stopping therapy is probably the best idea.

I started lying when I realized the "CBT specialist" just wanted to do talk therapy and not the therapy I was there for. She also told me I was too difficult of a case for her. So the next week when she asked "What do you want to talk about?" I said "Nothing" instead of "Let's talk about why I've given you thousands of dollars to not do your job!" She assumed that meant I was feeling better and I went with that. This has happened with every therapist. They all move to talk therapy and go on about how I'm "difficult". I eventually tell them I'm feeling better to get away from them.

I read all of it, made me think a lot about my cousin. She has bipolar, has been hospitalised several times, receives welfare money.

Your life really does sound like a living hell, I'm so sorry it is so hard... Part of me wants to say that you should be honest with your therapist, so you could exhaust all your options, but you already had a taste of what comes off of that, twice. You really gave recovery a lot of chances, no one can say you haven't given your all, which just makes me think how unfair it is that you can't get better. What an awful illness...

I think you're doing the right things, not being honest to the therapist to not risk losing them, what else can you do when past therapists left you for being honest? Really wish it didn't have to be that way...

I read your whole post. I can relate to you regarding statistics. It was challenging for me. After crying long periods of time, dropping 3 times, 3 different professors and 3 Ws later, I managed to get it. This site is my safe space as well. When I start talking about certain things, some think I'm off my rocker and here I'm understood.

I started lying to my psychiatrist about a year ago. She has no idea how close I came to ctb. I told her about being on pro suicide forums a couple days ago and oddly enough, she understood and didn't call 9/11.

I've been in therapy with my therapist for 3 years.
Around 2 years later my suicidal thoughts got stronger and I've realized she can't help me. I don't blame her. It's just that I stopped caring and never gave her the full picture of what I am thinking because that's what I did for 2 years already.
I knew she might do something when I open up too much. There wasn't any point in being 100% truthful.
At the very last session we talked about the whole therapeutic process and I just kinda told her what she wanted to her and then left.

I never thought I would be as desperate enough to become co-dependent again. I still hope she can handle borderline better than the first borderline woman I texted with. However, she also hinted she likes to ghost people. And does this quite frequently. I am so scared.

Tomorrow I am invited to a friend's party. He made a second birthday party only for me because I could not come to his first because I was in a clinic. Honestly, my friends are one of my main reasons of not havinbg ctb so far.

Yes I am lying to my therapists. This is unbearable. My life is a living nightmare. This post is one example how much I benefit that there is no limit of space and time on SaSu. I have an extremely high need to express myself under pressure and pain. And well I am always in severe pain. Thanks for reading it. Will anyone read the whole thing?

I noticed people on SS are some of the most real, down-to-Earth people on this planet. I believe the ones who get hurt most are the ones who are already suffering so badly. This makes me feel SO SAD. I have a LOT of internal pain and I don't talk to many people because I'm so afraid of bursting someone's "happy bubble". People here on SS make me feel understood, even if I'm just reading through posts. It just tears me up inside that so many others are suffering as well. Suicide should be talked about SO MUCH MORE and not stigmatized to talk about it openly. I believe this will actually SAVE more lives than what we're doing right now which seems to be, "You mentioned suicide? Then you must go to a mental hospital if you can't handle life!" This approach is obviously NOT working. I believe the biggest problem in this world is that nobody seems to really try to help each other and genuinely CARE because they've never felt this way themselves. I've never been to a mental hospital before but I've read ENOUGH stories to understand that I will NEVER TELL ANYONE that I'm planning to take my life one day. I live in the U.S. so I'm not familiar with the laws in Germany, but if you live in the U.S. and are considered a threat to yourself, then you can be involuntarily committed to a mental institution. I believe this is the reason why so many people just don't want to talk about it, although we're "screaming" in silence… which could be worse than going to an institution. I don't know. I just know that a lot of GOOD HUMAN BEINGS are suffering in silence on this planet because of these strict rules. I just want to talk about it so badly sometimes but I'm too afraid… so I just pretend I'm OK. I don't have any friends because I'm terrible at making small talk, feel socially awkward around mentally healthy people. All I know how to do is give a friendly smile and nod and just can't wait to retreat back to my home and be alone so I don't have to be fake. It gets exhausting after so many years! The only feelings that feel real to me are fear and sadness. Everything else I must fake until I'm alone again. I love being alone to a fault. I'm SO thankful for finding S.S. this year! I've never felt more ALIVE and connected to a part of this world until I found this site. I hope you do find peace and/or happiness in life. It seems that many people who were diagnosed with a "mental illness" sometimes seem to be the most understanding, caring and empathetic humans on this planet. It makes me wonder what defines a "mental illness". Not living in reality (superficial charm) seems to be more of a "mental illness" than being able to FEEL life more than others. People who don't feel fear and/or sadness as much as other will be happy living in their artificial world (ever seen the Barbie movie?!). Ignorance is bliss. It seems that people keep themselves busy and distract themselves from thinking about death. This seems to have been a historical pattern of ours as humans. I've always felt a bit different since I was a little girl. I was always afraid of the people in this world. Since I found SS, I've never felt more connected to this world than ever before. I found people who aren't fake and think similar to me. Sure there are definitely some INSANE people on here, but the ones who feel so much sadness and fear, to me anyway, seem to be some of the most empathetic people on this planet! It just makes me so sad to know that sooooo many people are suffering here. For whatever reason, I actually feel more connected to people who have had traumas in life, but at the same time, I'm absolutely terrified of people because of their traumas just as much as I'm afraid of "healthy minded" people are their superficial charm that I just can't connect with. I don't mind sitting with someone in silence while most people seem to fear silence so they talk and talk and talk kind of like I'm doing right now so I'll stop!!! 😂
Since I was in preschool, I've always felt scared, sad and somewhat isolated from my peers. Now in my 40s, I'm still that same little scared, shy girl that's afraid of the world. I don't want to get too personal online, but I feel that being sad or depressed or having a "mental illness" is actually seeing and FEELING the world around you. If feeling the world hurts you too much because you have too much empathy for others and live in a developed country, then it's considered "depression"?! This doesn't sit well with me. We have power-hungry, shallow, racist, xenophobic leaders in our country who are considered "sane" to many while having too many feelings and empathy for others is considered "depressed" and feeling afraid of these kind of people is considered "anxiety" or PTSD. What really defines a "mental illness" anyway? I try not to think of that word too much now because WHY do I feel more connected to people who are known to have a "mental illness" than those who smile all the time not knowing why they're even smiling?! The "Emoji Movie" anyone? 😁😂 I was "taught" to always smile, don't cry and to basically be a people pleaser, regardless of my own feelings. How is THAT not a mental illness?! I'm learning too late in life that I actually enjoy reading about others personal struggles in life and I'm not interested in someone's FAKEbook account or how many followers they have. I've always felt somewhat of a disconnect to people in this world, probably because my family was abusive. SS has made me feel more understood than I've ever felt in my life. Now, I understand that I'm writing WAY TOO MUCH and need to stop! Just know that there ARE people who WILL and CAN understand you. You are not alone, even though it may feel like you are. SS is my Facebook. I don't like FAKEbook! I'd rather read REAL comments and see REAL posts and read REAL stories from REAL human beings who don't try to sugarcoat or cover-up a cruel world. These are the kind of people I can truly relate with. I do believe that everyone has their own personal traumas and deals with them so differently, but hurting OTHER people should be the ONLY reason why someone should be involuntarily committed to an institution. We didn't choose to be born and yet we don't (lawfully) get to choose how we want to leave this planet.
I think I'm really tired and typing way too much! I'm so sorry if you made it this far! Sending everyone who's reading this a HUGE virtual hug. Please, hug yourself tight, even if it's just for a moment. Cross your arms and put one hand close to each shoulder and give yourself a squeeze and remind yourself that there ARE people who can understand you and care for you, even though you never met in person. There's an entire world of people here hurting and in so much pain… we all just need each other! ❤️
Sending Virtual Hugs. 🤗

Hey, so I know this post was a while ago, but I still wanted to respond since it popped up in my feed. I don't really have any words for you that you probably haven't already heard. What I will say is that I read the whole thing, and that I appreciate you as a human.

I've lied to my therapists, both implicitly and explicitly. I love my therapist to death. She is, as I describe in my bus note, a light shining in the darkness. Even she, a human who deserves everything, a human who has fought so hard to help me, cannot change what is going to happen to me. What kills me, what makes me feel like a horrible person, isn't that I don't tell her things. In fact, I do tell her things. I told her I was buying a gun. Once that attempt failed, I told her I intended to continue trying to commit suicide. What makes me horrible is that, when she takes that next step, I always tell her that I can't tell her my plan or my timeline. This puts her in a position where she knows I'm likely a danger to myself but she doesn't quite have enough to detain me. It feel like I'm intentionally torturing her, dangling my impending suicide like a piece of meat in front of her, when in reality I want to tell her everything but I can't because I don't want to be thrown in a fucking cage. (To be clear, in my state, she has no choice but to detain me if I'm a danger to myself and refuse voluntary admission. This is not her fault.)

I lie in more explicit terms to my regional and local crisis teams when they call for my check-ins. I feel less bad about this because I have no real connection to the people calling me; they're just asking the same questions every time to cover their own asses.

When she informed me of her mandates to turn me over to particular agencies if I told her I had plans of doing away with myself. That's what inspired me to stop seeing her. And, who knows what other mandates she has to comply with to be able to keep her license. There used to be a time when I could tell a therapist anything. There's no one to talk to anymore.

the problem w therapists is they only help if ur problems arent like. concrete things. like if its just past trauma or irrational fears, sure they can help. but if ur problem is caused by the state of society, things u have zero control over, what are they gonna do? at best theyll tell u to meditate n do colouring-ins to cope w ur crippling stress, at worst they'll treat u as delusional for pointing out well-known truths abt the world.

i dont think therapy can solve most ppls problems and i hate how everyone treats it like a cure-all. i feel like when its at a point that even normies must admit ur life is unchangeably horrific, they just go into denial n go "nuh-uh, ur just crazy!! ur too negative n deluded, just keep waiting for eternity for things to magically get better!! eXeRcIsE"

actually, there's been a lot of news articles abt how young ppl are more depressed than ever, but they NEVER mention things like poverty wages, the housing market, massive student debts, lack of aid for disability etc etc ad nauseam. they just go "well its bc young ppl are more mentally ill. must b social media idk"

I always believed in science, in its benefits and defects, so when I started therapy after my first attempt, I thought, these people want to help me, you have the studies and the means to do it. He didn't lie to them about anything, he answered every question and resolved any possible doubts that might arise.

Years passed and after multiple psychologists and psychiatrists who were referred to other hospitals or medical centers, I found the pattern that they all followed like a religion. Nice words, trying to make you think that life is nice, that there are people who love you... but they couldn't convince me of anything, the pills didn't do anything either, maybe I was a little better for 2 days, 1 week at most , but he always returned to the well. I lost faith in the science of mind and its practitioners. I spent hundreds of euros going to private professionals, but it was the same symphony, repetitive questions and words to discourage my thoughts. I don't know how many times I have had to tell my life, explain my ways of seeing the world and everything for nothing. So that they can give me morality lessons that they themselves don't put into practice.

I continued without lying, because I believed that I had had bad luck with the people who treated me, but no, they are simply inept people who studied a lot but did not understand anything, they were only looking for public or private money and to show off. They don't understand the mind, they fill in some boxes and then look at the psychiatric manual to know what to give you or what to tell you, but nothing more. The only relief came when he cried inconsolably after digging so deep that he couldn't stand it anymore. When I left the office I felt horrible again, it seems macabre to me.

On one occasion I accessed a forum of psychologists, with official registration and all that, of collegiates as they say here, where everyone met to ask questions, ask about diagnoses or medications... and laugh at their patients. It was very painful to find dozens of "professionals" openly laughing at schizophrenic patients, ADHD, maniacs and people who were looking to commit suicide and not being able to report it or even respond to them. Hurtful "jokes" about what pills to give them so that they couldn't even speak, lobotomies or suggestions so that they would end up locked up in psychiatric centers to get a patient off their back. These are the people who should help us? I do not think so. Even after that I continued without lying, but totally apathetic to listening to them, thinking that she or he could be one of the many who in her mind were thinking the things that others wrote. I have never been able to confess to anyone what I read, but they have lost my respect since then and I will never trust anyone who does not go out of their way. I understand that the study of the mind and drugs in this type of illness is still very green, but there are some who know how to go deeper beyond words and who understand the symptoms and the patients better, but I have not been able to find any therapist like that. They have managed, in part, to make me no longer want to continue living this lie. And it bothers me that it doesn't affect them when they find out about my death, and that they don't receive a reprimand from anyone. I don't know if they think they're demigods, but they're little more than scum.

FIrst of all, I advice against lying to a therapist in general. However, my situation is objectively very bad with barely any hope. Two therapists gave me up thinking I am a hopeless case who is going to commit suicide. I tried 3 psychotherapies, over 25 medication, six clinic stays.

The first time I was in a psychiatry was after my first psychosis I was scared to open up about the abuse I endured. Noone explicitly asked me which was a big mistake I think. But I never lied. At the first day clinic I also was 100% transparent. However, one year later my second psychosis erupted and I understood that my illness is cyclic. I understood that this is my death sentence. Interestingly I am and was more or less 100% convinced that I am going to commit suicide eventually. And this seems to be a pathological thought. Might even a delusional thought. This deterministic stance on my suicide. It is something an intellectual i met pointed out. I am way too certain about my predictions. At the same time there are many predictors that I am going to commit suicide. This is also why my therapists gave me up. There are many very rational and good reasons that make it likely that I am going to commit suicide eventually. After my psychosis I read statistics how often someone with bipolar relpases. I had extreme pain after my psychoses. And I plan to commit suicide when the next one happens. Statistics show that many many relapses are highly likely. I am unable to cope with this extreme hellish torture (even one more time). I had extreme psychosomatic pain in my legs after the crashs. It felt like getting torn apart. I plan to commit suicide when that shit comes back. And many therapists told me there will come a time when major depression returns well that's simply the nature of bipolar disorders. I find this stunning. The intellectual was right I have a very deterministic stance on my future. I am very/completely convinced that I am going to commit suicide eventually. So much that it seems to be pathological. At the same time it is a rational assumption considering all the aspects of my suicidality. What could be an explanation? I think coincidence. This conclusion makes me wonder. It is fascinating for me. But also kind of sad. I could go on elaborating oneit. But this is not the topic of the thread.

After my realization that bipolar repeates in cycles I became very anxious. I wanted to avoid mania as good as possible. There developed a defense mechanism inside my mind and I am not sure whether that's a good thing. This still goes in the wrong direction. Maybe I should save this discussion for another thread.

When I understood that this pain comes back one day I knew I will have to commit suicide because the pain is unbearable. I started psychotherapy and when I was fully honest about the extent of my suicidality my therapist gave me up. She did not notice that to this point my desperation was partly influenced by depression and pessimistic thinking. I did not take antipsychotics to this time point and she did not notice that I was slightly paranoid. What a great therapists she is lecturer at college and has a PhD. After being given up I ended up in a mixed manic depressive episode and the pain was very extreme. But after some months the psychosomatic pain disappeared. All my therapists were surprised because we did not expect that. I hoped my story could have a happy end. This was a development I never expected.

I tried to work and immediately collapsed. But I recovered after stopping to work . Finances are one of my main reasons for my plan to commit suicide. I prepared to start college again. I was aware that I am very unstable and cannot stomach much stress. This was the last straw. I started my third therapy. I was fully honest except for one thing. I knew if I relapse and develop another psychosis this extreme pain will return. And well I wanted to commit suicide if that happens. This made me pretty anxious at the start of college. I was very scared to fail and relapse. We were a good team me and that therapist. But I did not tell him that I plan to commit suicide after my next psychosis. If the pain returns I won't negotiate my decision. Especially because my life prospects are horrible. I was able to stomach the first two semesters. (I only study part-time.) Then the therapy ended. He was really optimistic about my future. But I was aware that I am a time bomb because my next relapse is just a matter of time. The third semester was very difficult. I only study part-time but I am even too ill and unstable for that. I had to take my emergency medication more often z-medication (addictive sleeping pills) and benzos. It was very close and I almost developed a psychosis. My therapists were stunned how well I managed it. But honestly it was hell. I always knew if I break the pain returns and when the pain returns I am going to commit suicide. Things really started to crumble. I had a crush on a trans woman and tried to approach her. When I approach women I often turn paranoid and I sort of embarrassed myself. This incident haunted me the next semester.

During vacation I tried to decrease the tolerance of the addictive medication but it was not enough time. The big issue of the fourth semester was once per week college started at 8 a.m. I had to wake up once per week at 6 a.m. And this literally broke me. This is the extent of my illness. I am unable to wake up at 6 a.m. once per week without collapsing. I am bipolar sleep rhythm is extremely important. I turned pretty paranoid during that semester. I had to increase the frequency of taking the benzos. However, even during that semester withdrawal symptoms occured. It was torture. It was nightmarish. I am lost for words. Benzo withdrawal is almost as severe as heroin withdrawal. My anxiety was extreme and it triggered me so fucking hard to make an ass out of myself in front of the trans woman. It was hell on earth. Moreover, I despised the subject I had to study. Statistics made me so so fucking depressed. I don't know how I stomached all of that but I did. During the statistics exam I more or less collapsed. It was way more than a nervous breakdown. Not even the benzos helped. And my crush even witnessed that and thought of me once again that I am just insane. It was so humiliating. Still I passed the exam. During vacation I was on a withdrawal. All alone at home. No substitution. My psychiatrist did not believe I had withdrawal symptoms. Tbh this was such a stupid assumption. I should have received something to lessen the pain. I read The Pale King of David Foster Wallace that vacation it comforted me.

The fifth semester started. The withdrawal symptoms got less after months of torture. The inner pain was very extreme. I was extremely lonely and I always turned paranoid when I approached women. I met an extremely attractive woman (who knows whether she was interested probably not) we had a great conversation then I turned paranoid and ruined it. The pain was insane. Since I am taking anitpsychotics I barely can cry. But I after this incident I often broke down in tears very strongly and without control. I increased the dosage of my antipsychotics. I felt more numb and I was so fucking thankful for feeling more numb. The inner pain was almost unbearable. I am often extremely agitated and college in general triggers the shit out of me. I don't know how but I also survived that semester. I had to do a very long paper during vacation. I barely had a break to recover. I became once again paranoid about a woman in my self-help group. It was the one more (of many thousand) narcissistic injuries I had to endure). Finally I became acute suicidal. I ordered SN. After all this insane torture. And the funny thing is. The really most fucking funny thing is. This is the good time period in my bipolar disorder. There will come again bad times. And major depression will return. And the extreme psychosomatic pain also. And I am not able to work and poverty will be my prison.

So I ordered the SN in April 2024. I considered to take it immediately. My friends pressured me not to do it. They wanted me to go to another day clinic. My sixth clinic stay. The staff was shocked about my condition. My sleep was horrible, my blood pressure too low, my pulse astronomically high, agitated, barely able to eat properly, malnutritioned, suicidal. After all of this well I was not transparent about my suicidality. I told them I was acute suicidal. prior to the clinic stay. I emphasized but now not more. And it was true most of the time I was not acute suicidal. On some days I was acute suicidal but I was not transparent in front of them. There were many positive things in that clinic. But it would have been way better if they had given me half of the amount my healthy insurance paid for this stay and I remained at home. I assume they paid like 10k. I live in Germany.

I am unable to stomach another rock bottom. And honestly all rational considerations in my case point to the fact that it won't get better. My parents retire soon. My whole family is scared about it. I think I might would have already taken the SN: But my mom had two strokes and I am scared to kill her in case I attempt. My biggest fear is she dies and I survive. In the clinic they knew I am well aware of my situation and I think they were scared about it. I was open that I consider to kill myself in October when college re-starts. I repeated that quite some times. However, at the last day I acted like I feel way better and I am so thankful for the clinic stay. I am optimistic about my future. It was such a fucking obvious lie. I was scared they would not welcome me back if I tell them nothing changed and I am still suicidal and desperate as fuck. The clinic stay helped like 10-20%. I am thankful for that. But it certainly was not worth 10 k.
The doctor (my therapist) who was unempathetic as fuck fully bought it. He wrote in the report after discussion about his future prospects the patient became more realistic about his future prospects. Lmao. He wanted to convince me welfare is not as bad as it seems. Well I plan to kill myself if I am on welfare. I cannot cope with that low amount of money. I am not used to it. Never was. I simulated poverty it is hell on earth. No I don't want to endure that. He also wrote my personality traits make my think so negative of my future. He even wrote in the report that he had to ask my mom whether my concerns about our finances are real. And well yes she fully agreed on it. Like WTF!

I was discharged last Wednesday. I try to stay away of planning suicide for a while. But I consider to do it in October. For my self-help group I am at college once per week. And it makes me cry. The notion going back to college makes me cry very hard (and very suicidal). But I also don't want to quit it and end up as a loser. It is a dilemma I might answer with suicide. I don't want to wait till poverty hits. I had hope for hypnosis. But I learned it can be damaging for psychosis patients. This was my last hope how to cope with the stress at college. I am so desperate. I met a borderline woman in that clinic and we text extremely much and intensive. This will end pretty pretty badly: She will probably ghost me when I am extremely dependent on her. The last time I had an argument with a borderline woman who I was dependent on was 2015. One of my relatives died after witnessing the argument and a new manic episode started. Well I am fucked. I am extremely fucked. I am scared to kill my mom if she has another stroke.

To be honest I think the only thing that can save me is Sanctioned Suicide. And I mean this seriously. I start to become very dependent on that borderline woman. Our bond becomes very strong. No other relationship could substitute that. I try dating apps to find a girlfriend. I hope maybe with someone from there I could have another close bond. So that the pain when she ghosts me is less. The thing is. Literally everyone would be overburdened with my neediness when she ghosts me. The pain will be unbearable. My solution: sorrow solution (who gets this reference?) SaSu has no time limit. I can talk as much as I want. (this thread proves it) And people are still listening to me. I think this is my only chance to survive when that borderline woman ghosts me. My life is so fucking fucked up, It is insane. I will cry out in the whole forum how much I miss her and all of that. How unbearable the pain will be to lose her. I never thought I would be as desperate enough to become co-dependent again. I still hope she can handle borderline better than the first borderline woman I texted with. However, she also hinted she likes to ghost people. And does this quite frequently. I am so scared.

Tomorrow I am invited to a friend's party. He made a second birthday party only for me because I could not come to his first because I was in a clinic. Honestly, my friends are one of my main reasons of not havinbg ctb so far.

Yes I am lying to my therapists. This is unbearable. My life is a living nightmare. This post is one example how much I benefit that there is no limit of space and time on SaSu. I have an extremely high need to express myself under pressure and pain. And well I am always in severe pain. Thanks for reading it. Will anyone read the whole thing?
I think I started lying (outright and by omission) as soon as I realized always telling the full truth about what I was feeling could be painful, annoying, or inconvenient. So- very early. The earliest I can remember lying to a therapist or psychiatrist to some degree is around 13, but I was probably doing it before then, too.
