Just thought I’d add my story. I suffer from a neurological condition that means I’m in agony 24/7. I want to die more than anything I’ve ever wanted and I’ve tried to end my life a few times. However, I’ve now resolved to take one day at a time and not end my life. I know my family would be devastated, and I’m doing this for them.
I’d like to encourage other people to take the suffering upon themselves to save their family grief. It is possible to grit your teeth and focus solely on getting through the present day.
