Discussion Emotions pre- previous attempts

[MeltingHeart]

What kind of and how many different emotions to you go through when (if) you've attempted before?

Too many to remember. First few times were cries for help and after that it was serious. The last attempt I just kept crying and I was shaking so much. I threw up which didn't help. Something was holding me back and as I was relieved to be still alive I was fucking angry I wasn't! Mixed feelings even now and it was a month ago.

Numbness, emptiness then fucking panic after the attempt (OD), then resignation to my fate either way.

It does seem to bring on the full intensity of every emotion possible - that Part of the brain just goes into over drives doesn't it. Were u sick just from the emotions ? So sorry that's awful
