I took a leave of absence from the board for a while after a lot of drama in my personal life. Two of my family members lost their battles with cancer this year and amongst other issues I had, I attempted to take my own life to relieve the pain.
I spent weeks in therapy working on a lot of issues and problems. It's actually kind of funny (in a crude way), a double major in psychology/education and there I was on the couch, unconscious because of all the pills I ingested. I knew better, but the pain became unbearable for me. I wanted it to end, I wanted relief.
I won't make this post a novel, but I just want to let everyone know that you all serve a purpose, and if you don't think so and feel like you can't handle your problems anymore, I'm here to talk. I find that I can be most candid and open around strangers aka: my psychiatrist. Although I have no credentials, i do have experience in dealing with a heavy burden of depression and suicidal thoughts.
I'm begging you, if you're feeling blue, please reach out to this thread. I'll do my best to keep up with it.
Best regards,
Anthony
