    Hi, britt123!

    This would appear to be a continuation of your other thread. There's really no need to start multiple threads about the same thing. People will respond. It just might take some time for them to do that.

    Like you, I'm basically alone. However, I've learned ways to cope with that. If you'd like to share, I'm game for it.

    Thanks!

    I'm sorry to hear about your losses. Why did your wife bail out with the kids?

    We can't help unless you tell us what's going on. We are good listeners!

    Now, your threads have been combined.

    If she was having an affair for two years, did you ever suspect anything during that time?

    Can we talk you out of a permanent solution to a temporary problem?

    There are better ways to get through this than suicide.

    We want you to at least consider the other ways. The fact that you posted here tells me you want to hear about those ways.

    How do you think your children will feel if they grow up and find you did such a thing? We're here... At least they know you're there if they need you . Don't do anything to hurt your children by taking your life. They've been through enough and I'll bet if they had a choice they would be with you. Don't take that choice away from them... I'm waiting to hear from you!

    What this is, is called a thread. Unlike a chat room, when someone posts a response, a person needs to go to the thread in order to see the response.

    When you post on the thread, you are in essence, posting a reply.

    You're angry, aren't you, britt, but instead of taking constructive action, you are sitting there and letting your worst feelings rule over you.

    We will tell you how to get past this and begin to take action (and make your kids proud of you). Please post again!

    We're here... don't you know there are people who have felt exactly how you're feeling right now? This is a cruel world and sometimes yes it seem there are things in our lives that have made us all want to throw in the towel... We didn't, because where there is life there is hope. Nobody ever said life is going to be a cake walk at least they didn't say it to me.

    You are asking for help and you can get it here...

    Obviously OP is reaching out - also appears not to be able to talk about "it" (which I understand).

    As far as not wanting to go on - and this is just me - I wouldn't give her the satisfaction of going on without me, raising the children without my input. I wouldn't play her game.

    I realize you put up with things for two years - did you have any plans at all as to what would happen next? Did she just blindside you?

    Again - I'd think it over. I would not let this woman who apparently does not have a good moral base raise my children without me.

    OP has to find someone to listen - whether it's this board, another board, a health care professional, a clergyman, someone.

    When my husband died I honestly didn't care if I lived to see the sun come up. At times I didn't think the sun would come up. People on this board listened to me, held me hand, held me up.

    My life has vastly improved and I have a life today that I didn't think was possible.

    You have to hang on - for yourself as well as your kids.

    Share with us.

    Hi britt, glad to hear you are still here. Do you want to tell us a little about your life, what you enjoy, what you do in your day to day activities, what you work at ? That would be a good start to getting to know us and good getting to know you. We often help people sort through a bad time and I hope that we make a difference to them. Make it so they can carry on. One foot in front of the other and keep on going. Some of us have had bad times and are still around to laugh and enjoy life and what we do to make it enjoyable. Maybe just little things.

    Next time you come on, stay on for a bit and see what comes out of the input from other members here at AMHD. Reply to some of them, answer their questions, ease their minds, so to speak.

    Britt, why don't you tell us why you are here, what you want, what you need?

    Several of us have poured out our hearts to you and you either can't or don't want to respond.

    If you are so positive that you do not want to live ("unfortunately") you MUST get professional advice and/or treatment.

    I don't want to feel responsible for whatever happens to you and you are putting me in that position.

    Either share or get professional help - I don't know what else can be said that hasn't already been said.

    I know its hard when someone takes your life away (children). But do not worry when one door closes another opens. Everything happens for the best. Anytime you need advice just ask question and they shall be answered. Do not worry

    I apologize to everyone especially JudyKayTee I don't want anyone to feel responsible for my actions. It was a mistake to vent my feelings on here and put others in an akward situation. Yes I have gotten professional help and obviously it didn't help. I don't know what I expected to find on this site it was a last ditch effort I guess, I am sorry. And I have heard all the sayings : what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, the longest journey begins with the first step etc.
    My favorite God closes a door and opens a window my take on it, so you can jump out the window. Again I don't want anyone on here to feel responsible I am sorry I started on this site. Again I am sorry to everyone you are good caring people.

    Hi again, britt123!

    And, sometimes it might seem as though God has opened a porthole!

    I've been there with the infidelity thing, losing children, not having money and also contemplating suicide.

    We are here to help!

    How are you feeling and thinking now, please?

    Thanks!

  • Jun 7, 2010, 08:43 PM
    Kitkat22

    Britt, there are times in my life even now when I feel alone. Many years ago I was in a situation where I was alone and had it not been for my child I might have contemplated suicide. But I didn't because I knew there were people who cared for me.

    Your children may not be with you, but I'll bet you are in their thoughts. They know they have you and someday they'll come to you.

    Being hurt is a horrible feeling... it weighs you down. Don't ever let yourself think about taking something so precious as the life God has given you.

    God put you on this earth for a reason and when it's time for you to leave this earth it will be because he's ready for you.

    Your children need you. God is with you and he will guide you if you will let him. I know you're hurting... I hurt sometimes too.
    Everybody does.

    Just know this... we're here for you. We'll listen and try to help you. Stay strong and pray and put this in God's hands... he'll never leave you. People may let you down and hurt you but God will never forsake you... Kit

    You drove around and tried to think and clear your head and started to jot down your goodbye notes?

    Even today, I thought about how much I really don't enjoy my life. However, things got better once I got out of my head. That happened this evening at a meeting.

    What's the most pleasant memory of a place that you've ever been to in your life, please?

    When did God tell us we wouldn't have problems in life?

    We ALL have problems, or have in the past, or will. I have. Last September I was rushed to the hospital by ambulance with two bleeding ulcers and anemia and then my doctor found breast cancer the next morning. Why me?

    Each expert on here has or has had problems. (I've been here long enough to know that.) A favorite one is missing. We don't know what happened to him or if he will be back. We're worried about him.

    Why NOT you? Why shouldn't you have problems?

    P.S. It's not that you or we have problems. We all do. It's how you handle them that means something in the greater scheme of things.
