Today, I called a suicide prevention hotline. The guy who picked up sounded drunk, told me to fuck off, and hung up. FML
mdg41 tells us more.
Hi I posted this. Thanks for all the support!! I was in a really bad place when I posted this but I've been talking to a professional and got on medication and I'm really improving. All your comments really helped too. I didn't call the wrong number, I called back and asked someone else for a supervisor and he said he'd look into it. Never heard anything back from him though. I just hope the asshole that told me to **** off didn't drive anybody else over the edge :

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I'm not going to even make a joke. OP, things might seem dark and grey now, but things will always get better. Trust me, I've been where you are at, and life gets brighter. Finding a support group that offers advice and genuinely cares is invaluable.

Oh wow. Maybe instead of working at a help hotline he should call one too. On a side note. Don't do it.

You might have called a wrong number. Keep reaching out, OP. People care. we care. Don't give up ! Message me! I care.

Trust me OP, everyone hits a lot of lows and sometimes you stay there for a while. The amount of times I've thought of horrible thoughts like that is numerous. I've tried masking my depression with fake happiness but I would get to the point where it would just be too much to handle. I now go and talk to a psychologist and she listens to everything. It's nice to be treated but it's also good to know that someone is there. Message me if you ever need to, OP. I always care

That's so messed up! Please don't do anything to yourself! You're worth a lot more than that. You were put on this earth for a reason and you can always message me if you're ever feeling down. :)

Plz stay strong, don't let one person's mistake define your whole life. Just remember that for one reason or another you were the winning sperm and chosen to some extent to be alive no. Whatever reason you called that suicide hotline for remember this, the only constant is change. Things may seem important now but nothing remains permanent except death.

I'm sorry OP, but just remember, life's like an arrow, it has to be pulled back to shoot forward.
