Why are you against being hospitalized? Even just once?
You say if you went to the hospital every time you had a suicidal thought, then you wouldn't be at home and you might as well sell your house.
Maybe you shouldn't be at home.
Those thoughts are consuming and you're spinning your mind around.
While hospitalized, you'd have rational people to talk to all the time.
You ended your post with "if I can feel better, I want to", but the rest of your post doesn't really speak that to me. You sound very indifferent about your life, you called it sub-mediocre, and if you are trying to strategize your psych so that you can have access to a drug that can either help you or kill you, I'm really not convinced about your commitment to your health.
If you REALLY want to have the option to feel better, then perhaps you shouldn't eliminate the possibility of being hospitalized, which can be a real help. I feel like you're focusing mainly on disappointment, that the drugs will not help, and that you're just going to be depressed for your whole life. That is absolutely not true.
This week is a very emotional week for me. Ryan's birthday is this week, my friend who was killed at the school shooting. Also, this week is the 2 year anniversary of my friend Amanda's suicide. Both losses are equally tragic and painful to me. You want to have a rational conversation about suicide? Your suicide would greatly affect the lives of those of us who love you. You think you're just destroying your own, but you'd be destroying my life as well.
