I was wondering if anyone else has the same problem as me? Whenever I get close to someone, especially intimately close, I lose my sense of self. If they point out a behaviour that I wasn't aware that I had eg selfishness or attention seeking, I believe them and don't even try to explain why i...

People say that it will get better and some days I believe them and then when the darkness creeps in, anything anybody says doesn't even register. It's terrifying to even think about suicide. Telling someone about it though makes it very real in the fact that they are just thoughts. It seems...

It might help to know that you are not alone in your thoughts. It's helped me already (I'm new too) to know that others understand my feelings and thoughts. There are people on here who will listen and give advice. We all have our own experiences and fair share of loneliness and depression but...
