I feel really bad at the moment

Dear Evie 1,

I am so sorry that you are feeling so bad at the moment. Sometimes feeling like you want to die is not actually wanting to die but feeling so much pent up sadness and anger and hopelessness and uselessnes that you are wound up ilke a coiled spring and you can't see way way out. Sometimes it helps to get rid of that frustration by physically punching a pillow or cushion or kicking the door to try to get rid of that physical aggression. Having a good cry is also a useful tool. Or if you can bear to, go outside and walk as fast as you can. It doesn't matter where you go, just keep walking until the feelings start to go away.

I am 63 years old and I have managed to stay alive using tricks like these. Suicide is not an answer. it is a dead end (literally). You want to stay alive because one day you will feel better than this, one day you may find happiness, - I promise you, I have been there myself and I know there is a way out.
