I'm sure most people didn't really notice, but a few did: I was offline from Friday evening to Tuesday afternoon. It wasn't because I wanted time away from the internet or because I went on a nice vacation.
Friday night I took 50 Tylenol PM in a suicide attempt.
I am extremely lucky to be alive. We got the ambulance there not long after I did it, and they gave me charcoal to drink. I was in the ICU for about 3 days with IVs and a catheter in. Then I was moved over to the psych ward on Monday and was there until Wednesday (so ~3 days in the ICU, and 3 in the Psych ward.)
I am going to be making a video to answer any questions people may have. I thought that would be better than just typing it up.
So, please put your questions here, or on Facebook or Google+ and I will be making that soon.
I am thankful to still be alive.
That's rough, I hope you have all the support you need.
ReplyDeleteI definitely do. The support I've gotten for it has been amazing.
DeleteYou are one of the bravest people I know.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I just want to be able to help people.
DeleteWow, I noticed you were gone, but with Ash's Birthday and your anniversary, I figured you were busy. I was going to message you. but was waiting until after this weekend. i am in tears, crying hard, glad I am home a lone right now. I love you so much and I am here for you, always am. You do not need to explain anything to me, yes I have questions, You know me and know that i am deeply concerned. I am here if and when you need me, text, call, whatever you need. I have wanted to come and visit, but with not knowing when surgery will be, again, keep putting it off. If you need me, I will find a way to get there. Anything for you.
ReplyDelete^ This. All of it. Except the crying, got that out of the way already. CALL ME WHEN YOU GET LIKE THIS DAMMIT.
DeleteI will, I promise.
DeleteEmi, You can always talk to me when you need to. I know we have only had a short time to get to know each other as cousins, but I really care about you and am here to support you. You can always talk to me.
ReplyDeleteThanks. <3
DeleteEmi, I don't know you that well, so I'm not sure what all is going on. I know I've lost several people (both parents included) to suicide though and I would NEVER want to see anyone go out like that! I'm looking forward to the video in hopes I can understand more of what was going on (or did you put it up and I missed it?).
