You say you’ve been there and thought about it. But have you TRIED it? I did. I was suicidal almost exactly 15 years ago today. I even wrote my note, and had every intention of going through with it. But at the last moment I realized that just maybe, MAYBE, I wasn’t thinking very clearly.
I called for help. And in the fifteen years since that day, my whole life has changed for the better.
Please, please, please seek help. You’re literally in a fight for your life. Pick up the phone and start fighting for it.

I understand. I think you’ve been depressed for some time, and now this has caused to come to the forefront. I think you really need some medical help, and the best thing you could do for yourself is go to the hospital. Once you’re there, you can get some meds to help with the confusion, some counseling to help cope with the depression, some financial aid advice, and possibly even some help from social services.
You paid taxes on 5 thousand dollars a month for years; now it’s your turn to ask for some of it back. Again, there’s NO shame, and nothing to be embarrassed about. You earned it; now you need it.
2013-04-01 13:39:20 on Im a 53yr old single male who in the last 5yrs has had alot of loss.
Too embarrassed? Why? You EARNED the right to ask for help! You’ve given freely and too much, and now you need to see a tiny return. That’s nothing to be embarrassed about.
Tell me: if you were still working, and your sister needed money today because she was facing the same situation, would you want her to too embarrassed to ask? Or if your daughter was thinking about killing herself over money, would you want her to come to you?
The three of you are a family, and you have to help each other. It’s your turn in line, and there’s no shame in it.
2013-04-01 13:06:39 on Im a 53yr old single male who in the last 5yrs has had alot of loss.
I have been where you are. I swear it. I’ve been there more than once. But I got through it, and life has gotten better. Yours will, too!
Now call the sister and tell her how much trouble you’re in, and ask for her help. Even if she says no, talking to her will be good for you. Do the same with your daughter. Do the same with your long-lost cousins and the old fishing buddy you haven’t seen.
Talk to anyone and everyone who will listen, because you NEED to right now.
2013-04-01 12:11:34 on my mom says she’s miserable and that she hates
If you become afraid she is planning to do something to hurt herself or someone else, call for an ambulance. Suicidal thoughts and plans are a medical emergency.
2013-04-01 11:05:19 on Im a 53yr old single male who in the last 5yrs has had alot of loss.
No; he didn’t. You CAN handle this, and you WILL handle this, and you will be getting back on your feet SOON.
I understand about sending money to family and paying for family bills. You’ve done your share of that. Now it’s time for you to seek help from others. Can your sister or daughter send you some cash? If not, can you stay with one of them for a while? Is there anyone you can ask for a loan?
2013-04-01 10:51:25 on Im a 53yr old single male who in the last 5yrs has had alot of loss.
I know how it is about friends that disappear when you need them. I really do.
But if a thousand dollars is all you need, I’ll bet you can get that much together if you call the Salvation Army.
There’s help available for rent, utilities, gas money, job training…you name it, it’s there. And Prescott is a big enough town to have lots of things going on.
Stop thinking about death; stop freakin’ about the bills, and start planning how you’re going to survive long enough to get your employment issues sorted out.
2013-04-01 10:32:05 on Im a 53yr old single male who in the last 5yrs has had alot of loss.
Why don’t you drive down to Wickenburg for the day? Just drive down the mountain, enjoy the gorgeous weather, spend the day wandering around town and take in some new sights?
You just might love every minute of it, and you just might start feeling a LOT better.
2013-04-01 09:41:16 on Let me start by saying that I am a gay man.
Instead, he says he will hang out with whomever he wishes and that they are just friends.
——————-
They don’t sound like “just friends”.
Why don’t they have plans to hang out one day with YOU? Why while you’re at work? I agree with the poster above that you need to clarify whether your boyfriend cares at all anymore about how you feel, or if infatuation for the young man is blinding him.
I’d say that if he does go out with the other guy =even with a group= some relationship counseling is in order. If he won’t go, you go by yourself.

I’ve been to Prescott many times. I agree it’s gorgeous there! I’m glad you’re going to wait. Does Prescott have a Salvation Army? If they do, why don’t you give them a call and find out if they have a list of the various services and such in town that might be able to help you out until you find another job?

If you’re in Arizona with me, tomorrow is already here. Now let’s stop thinking about death, and start thinking about how to make the rest of this day better, okay?
Are you in the White Mountains? Show Low area?

I agree with AdamG. You need a CHANGE, but choose a positive one.
Losing a job and a home is really just unencumbering for a single man. My father lived by choice in his truck for decades, and he loved every minute of it. He traveled all over the country, and never looked back. He told me that he wouldn’t live in a house again for anything -and he meant it.
2013-04-01 00:00:21 on Im a 53yr old single male who in the last 5yrs has had alot of loss.
I’m here. Want to talk to me?
2013-03-31 22:04:25 on Im a 53yr old single male who in the last 5yrs has had alot of loss.
No, it’s NOT like going to sleep. It’s not the end of a day; it’s the end of your existence.
Your daughter will wonder forever why you did such a thing. Your sister will spend the rest of her life wondering if it’s her fault. They will never, ever, ever recover.
You need to stop thinking about death. I mean it. Just take that option off the table, and think about what you are going to do to make life good again.
