#1 and #2, you really, really do need to get help. You don't have to fight something like that alone, and it doesn't make you "sick" or anything. To me, it's like anything else we have trouble with in life, like when our car breaks down or something. Seriously, to even attempt suicide means you need help. Please do get help.
Oh, and this is going to sound really silly, but I'm going to suggest it anyways. Have you thought about multivitamins? I take (don't laugh) Fred Flintstone multivitamins regularly, especially when I'm feeling "slow". I don't know what your diet is like, but I do think that we we don't sleep well and don't eat well, things can turn for the very worse. I also try to make sure I get expose to the sun every day. I hope that you will try the same.
Hehe. #5, I'm a do-er, not a talker. But that's OK.
#34. Hehe. I'm exactly the same way. Seriously, I'm 32 as well. But I don't feel like it, until I try to do something physical and realize that I am no longer 20 so my body can't quite do it. That's kind of embarrassing... and sometimes painful at the same time.
