Help Woke up not feeling suicidal...I don't like it

[cookiencream]

Yesterday I bawled my eyes out about being too scared to end it but not wanting to be here at all...I woke up not feeling like dying. It was so uncomfortable I don't like it at all. Weirdly enough I want to go back to feeling suicidal. Even the event that pushed be over the edge to ctb I'm now...okay with in a way. I think it's the meds working in a way + the crying. And I don't like it. It feels unsafe, like I can taste the crash coming because ik this is never permanent. Considering I was just suicidal yesterday I don't think this is going to last so I think I should be okay?

Or, it is going to last and being suicidal was a phase:)

Wishing you the best

Well, that was a really long phase.

We can get used to feeling a certain way. Sometimes I catch myself feeling more comfortable when I'm sad, especially after spending long periods that way.
So when I find myself happy or feeling relatively okay, it feels a bit strange… but I think it's a good thing in the long run! I hope you keep feeling good! <3

I live between days when I'm really suicidal, and if I had means for it I'd been gone long ago, and then other days like the one you're having today, in which things are okay to good. I'm used to those fluctuations during the week and, like you say, it feels like tasting the crash coming. That's a shitty side to it, but I've learned to expect it and ride the waves.
And for me, I like the good days. Sure they feel weird coming right after the awful ones, and it lifts that veil of comfort that suicidality offers, cos the scary world and its realities are still there... but suddenly you don't feel like doing anything about it, like the brain just forgor about all that, forgor to feel like it should. Enough time having them you get used to them tho, you enjoy them easier.

Don't know if it will go back to suicidality for u. In my experience probably but hey, above all I'd wish you slowly started feeling not-bad about not being suicidal. Rn might be scary and weird, who knows in time when those meds set off. Like I said, just hoping you can feel better about feeling better <3

I guess I'm uncomfortable with the idea I have no way out. If I stop feeling suicidal then when I have a rough period, I actually have to get through it. Killing myself isn't an option and that sounds scary to me. This feels especially weird because I was experiencing depersonalization and derealization for a while. So coming back down from it and feeling "human" again makes me so uncomfortable. I don't like feeling connected to myself

Change is scary. The unknown is terrifying. You're still around and the only way forward is facing the unknown- in either direction. Don't put up barriers to yourself for experiences before the 'thing'. We often surprise ourselves when we imagine anything is possible. Not trying to be needlessly optimistic, but allowing anything to be the foundation of itself and possible, and not assigning good or bad to anything. Just the experience itself and being mindful of it- intentions can make the world of difference.

Sending love and hope for valuable/positive introspection.

I don't want to experience pain anymore, even if it means giving up all the good

i read this once, it was worth reading, could explain something to you, especially on what you feeling, it's really short

I feel that, really that is 10,000 % REAL!!!!!! I have chronic pain in my knees which leads to mental fatigue. Waking up in the morning is hard because the first sensation I feel is the pain again. People keep telling me to focus on the positive things in life. As if that changes anything. I try but it is useless.

I get the "missing being suicidal", I miss it a lot too, to the point that when I'm sad I prolong the sadness and try to get it to extreme depression. It's not healthy and I wish I could CTB, but the fact is, I can't, for the life of me I couldn't die. Nothing I tried worked and one day I met the person who helped me. We all won't be that lucky, and truthfully it might get worse for others. It's scary walking into the unknown, especially when you walk alone, but you have members of a community who knows what it's like and I'm sure someone will hold your hand as you walk through the thick and thin. Being in the light isn't easy it's not rainbows and unicorns like people make it out to be, it can be if you are with the right kind of people. I have hope in you, I know it's scary but it can be worth it, ik you have the courage through walk threw that swamp.

Sadly it was a feeling that only lasted for a day. Right now there's nothing I want more than going to sleep and not waking up

Even having that feeling for a day is a huge step in the right direction.
