There's not a lot support yet for suicide addiction. Though this has helping me a lot so far. Still really tough. Though was at the point where it was getting worse and worse. Not when I feel the urge it's not completely paralyzing. Can do other stuff. Had always had this motivation, and focus deep within me. Felt it for a while. When the sducidal urges took over that was it. It just disappeared. Did spiritual and non main stream psychology/ personality stuff. Self help. Though everything was just gone with the suicidal urges. There was a lot of obstacles along the way. Though slowly it chipped away, any chance of getting out of it. Certain things have gotten better, but the addiction is so strong at this point. Fear of death has all, but eroded. The stuff of this world is just to scary to me. Though that doesn't mean there aren't any reasons I want to live. Am focusing on them, since life feels like an option.
Though this not being as widespread as AA is difficult. I'm interested. I studied Swedenborg, and remember hearing about the beginning of AA from that. Wonder how much of our experience parallels early alcoholics. Though looking at it also inspires me, and gives me hope.
SA is like getting a key to unlock everything that had to get me out it that which was blocked by the urges

WAY BACK IN 1934 HE BEGAN TO TEACH US THE PRINCIPLES AND ATTITUDES THAT AFTERWARD CAME TO FULL FLOWER IN AA'S TWELVE STEPS FOR RECOVERY."
