Have you ever think about suicide?

[marycsm77]

Kimsoon,

Is there anyone that can help advocate/speak out for you, to secure the resources that you need, even the basics? As GL and jody and others have said, do you have a case worker, someone at your church, anyone who can help advocate on your behalf? It really is helpful to have someone who maybe can help you find out what is available to you where you live, rather that trying to do it yourself or thinking that nothing is possible.

First post. Yeah, I thought about it today when I heard that a young 27 year old girl, seven months pregnant in a local village committed suicide this morning. Now how sad is that, and how bad can the pain be for that girl's family? Now less of the self pity. No matter how bad the pain we feel, there are always people worse off than ourselves. Regards Mike.

Kimsoon I am a incomplete quad and I lived in a private Old Folk Home we refer to as a ; ( Nursing Home ) and there was help it is better than giving up

Maybe you can think about trying to move into that place via Social Worker or Priest there is people to help . Plus noursihment etc ... Nice people

Suicide is not good
Suicide affects Everyone around you in life in a very Sad hard way that makes them feel guilty .
I feel suicide is a greedy way out but thats my opinion



We do care

Life is full of all sorts of quirks and emotions we all feel sad , depressed but giving up is very drastic


I adapted I used a pen in my mouth for a long time it was hard I never forget how hard it was and still is but these challenges only makes us stronger ...

In my hospital bed several years ago . I couldnt use any voice dictation software because my voice was gone There always is a way to accomplish positive goals but one must start thinking positive to find the way .
I've published poems with a stupid pen in my mouth

You are communicating via computer so you do have a purpose to carry on
Hugs

As someone who has lived in Singapore and the Phillipines, I know that the culture is very different. Some have very little and work harder than imaginable to get it. Not knowing her case, I can say no more. Best wishes.

All the pastor and church members know my situation, maybe they think that my family still able to cover my expenses so there's no any action from them.

Kimsoon: Please have your caregiver get the address of the Claris church, the pastors name and possibly if a phone number is available? Please post this here when he brings you the information. Perhaps we can help, but we need the information as a starting place. Please have the caregiver help you with this.

I am sure the pastor and church members would love to help but they do not have enough information or know what you and your families true situation is. We can help you to reach out and improve your situation.

Thanks for all concern and kindness from here.

I feel embarrass suddenly because My action just like self-pity and want to get attention here. Actually there is many people who are worse than me around the world. I need to gratitude rather than complaint too much.

Social Case Worker? Is official from welfare department? Their service and attitude is bad.

To install a stairway device, need to renovate house and it's cost a lot.

I think about Nursing Home before but the cost is beyond my budget.

Kimsoon, everyone gets down at times so it's not bad to reach out and talk to other people. I am sure you are grateful for what you have, but it's not a bad thing to explain your situation and ask for guidance. There are people here that care about you and would like to help you in any way possible.

I believe in God after my accident. There is 2 church members who is closer to me.
