I'm okay now.

But I'm bearing the cross of my alcoholic father.

I'm okay so don't worry.

I'm not committing suicide.

I'm just drunk now. And I'm happy.

But I know this is unhealthy.

When I sober up I will be ashamed and scared. I know that.

But for now I'm savfe. Thank you for your love.

I have the same genetic demons, but I don't pretend to know what you're going through, even though I've contemplated suicide myself years ago. I would encourage you to reach out to those around you, or to a professional if possible.

Your voice is appreciated and very much loved here. Know that there are plenty of folks here that are happy to just listen if you ever need it!

However, as a survivor of suicide (my mother took her own life) it is a hot button for me. She would not get the help she sorely needed and we could not save her. I believe a professional could have. I'm a believer in good counseling. Please consider it. Peace.

You recognize your problem--And that's a good bit of the solution right there.

You are important. To your wife, your family, us.............and yourself.

I don't really know what to say. But I do know I would miss you if you killed yourself.

I'll call a cab from Raleigh and burn up a credit card if you need someone...

"Been there, done that", as they say - even included an involuntary two-week vacation at Dorothea Dix before it closed. That was almost 25 years ago, and I'm glad today I wasn't successful.

I still have major problems, even worse than when I did that, but I'm determined to stick around even if for no other reason than my kitties depend on me. Besides, we've got to be here to properly torture the GOP...

Let me know if you need me, dear. I'll find a way to get to you...
