I've been contemplating suicide for a while, and I'm too afraid to ask my friends for help since it'll probably be seen as crying for attention rather than a genuine plea for help.
I sometimes "talk to" a character I invented through an alternate Discord account. I assume the persona of a friend who doesn't think I just want attention. Somehow it helps me look in from the outside and remind myself of what I have and that I can keep going. It's probably unhealthy, but I can't afford professional help.>>43330699Same. I'm still friends with an ex who I told this to once and she encouraged me to do it, but she's extremely petite so I couldn't just borrow any of her skirts. I wouldn't be caught dead buying one for myself or even owning it (since I live with housemates).
