Are you still in that state of mind? Sending love ❤️🩹
How did the 2nd stay inpatient differ from the first (apparently less successful) stay after your first attempt?
I’m sorry you have struggled. What did they diagnose you with?
Why? What was going on in your life the led you to do it ?
I’m glad to hear you’re no longer in that headspace. Coming from personal experience with this issue, I just wanted to ask, after either of your attempts, did you regret it? I know from my own attempts I pretty much regretted them immediately.
I hope you’re doing better, and thank you for sharing such a sensitive aspect of your life, you rock!
