I told a group of friends about my attempt which I totally regretted and want to move forward from. Â I told a few people and everything was okay. Â I made the mistake of telling more people that I respect and go to for advice… but they don’t know me as well. Â Anyways, I now feel like a leper. Â I can tell that certain people don’t want me around their families any more and that they are uncomfortable when they are around me. Â How are you supposed to move forward if opening up has so many negative consequences?

I have NEVER told anyone else about my attempts. That can get you locked in a psych ward. I feel your pain though, Once they think you are off the rocker they distance themselves. I no longer have any communications or social contact with anyone outside this site besides my mother and usually I avoid talking to her unless she comes and talks to me which she rarely does. Once people think you have a mental illness you will be stigmatized no matter what you say or do
To me if someone really cared about you they would get pissed off at the attempt of suicide. My bf had a friend that had tried suicide and he literally beat the shit out of him.. I guess if a person is uncomfortable with your situation then it seems like they arent really a friend to seek advice from.
