Suicidal thoughts, where to go to get away from things?!


Question:

Suicidal thoughts, where to go to get away from things?

I've been very depressed lately, having suicidal thoughts, and almost bought materials to commit such an act. The circumstances are complicated, and I don't believe committing myself to be the answer. I've spoken to the national hotline a couple of times already. Most of these negative feelings have been coming from being in my current living situation.

I really think I just need to go somewhere for a few days, to get my mind off of the situation... because everything around me reminds me of a fond memory and I just get upset over it *i.e. my furniture, my bed, etc.* so if I just find someplace thats safe and tranquil to spend some time, with no phone to deal with, I think I can get through this.

It's kind of an odd request, I'm just wondering if anyone has any suggestions. I live in the state of florida, and i have a little money to spend that I had set aside, but not nearly enough to commit myself to a mental hospital, and I dont want to put my family through that situation.

I'm really not going to commit suicide, I just get bent out of shape after seeing them... basically after few years, my significant other just decided to walk out on me and move in with someone else, and they're together now. It cant really be helped, he's just a loser.

I just feel a little exploring would do me good. Camping is something I had thought of, just with how expensive most other travel is these days. Thank you all for your words of encouragement.


Answers:

I'm sorry you are having such a rough time, but the fact is that running away from memories does no good. The sadness is in your head, not in your location. You would do better to use that money to see a therapist and work out the issues that cause your sadness.
