I have had moments (more than 5) where I have prepard for my suicide. I have note written, its on my pillow. I have three pill containers all filled with tylonal,asprin, and advil. I have my glass of water. im crying. I start with taking one of each, but then I hear the garage door open so I quickly put everything back in my safe and get in bed to make it look as if im taking a nap. I have suicide thoughts daily and I know I need help im just afraid to ask for it.
