I'm starting to notice my early signs of spiraling down to suicidal ideation, again. I could really use some funny stories to distract me for the time being.

Funny? Hmmm. I had stayed up late, so tired, didn't want to hurt my eyes in the morning so dressed in the dark. Went to work. Had to run errands for work so now it's nearly noon, 4 hours after I've been at work & I'm in an elevator with my back to everyone else in there.
"Sir?" I hear, I am not a sir either.
"Hmm?" I ask.
"I just thought you might like to know that I think you might have your shirt on backward", stranger says.
I look down; holy shit. I was so tired I had not noticed that I had a polo style shirt on and the collar was under my chin like same bizarre half turtleneck with an outward flourish.
I laughing turned bright red, spun the shirt around. There we go! Thats right, pocket in front!

So, as someone who struggles with addiction, anxiety, depression & the suicidal ideation that comes with it I'll just say that therapy has helped me a lot. That's an understatement. I really was one shot from being homeless & then dying in the gutter of an od but I got into therapy & I've been clean since December 2014. I still have the thoughts I just know that tthey'll come & go now. Is finding the right therapist an option for you?
