Hi,
I just happened to read some of your other posts and I noticed that they're over six months old. I'm sorry you're still in so much pain after all this time and that you're mood is probably getting even worse, since I've never read a post written by you mentioning suicidal ideation before.
I'd like to be able to give you some advice on how to get back on your feet but I'm in the same boat as you (I could relate to some of the things you've mentioned about yourself in your older posts), even though my desire to end my life is nothing more than a recurrent thought at the moment. However, five years ago I've seen it as a real option on a specific occasion and that pain is sometimes still vivid. Depression, either caused by a single major event or being the result of a lifelong, unhealthy thinking pattern, can affect greatly one's ability to think straight. This is why I think you should turn to someone for help and tell them your problem (which is something you've already done by writing this and other posts), someone whose ability to make rational decisions is not impaired by this kind of mental illness. Believe me, there's pretty good odds that many options are available for you right now that do not imply committing suicide and you've never considered them, but someone else can help you take a deeper look at your current situation. So, here's my advice: talk to someone who wouldn't dismiss your problems, possibly someone whose emotional involvement in your life and wellbeing wouldn't affect their ability to offer unbiased advice (a professional would obviously be the best choice). The informations you provided in this post are vague and I can't come up with a possible solution. Also, human contact plays an important role in these situations, so do not limit yourself to seeking advice on the internet: establishing a relationship and talking through your problems with someone you trust can help you even more. I don't know how bad your mood is at the moment and I'm not trained to diagnose people, but I think you should seek help as soon as possible.
Best wishes.
