I tried to kill myself a few times back in the day. Very similar to how you did.
I know how it feels to be at fucking rock bottom and just want to die. Probably because I was an angsty teenager, but thinking back, the emotional pain was very real at the time.
I didn't kill myself, and I've gotta tell you, I've had a lot of ups and downs since then. There have been times where I wished I succeeded, and times where I completely forgot I was ever in that bad of a funk.
Has the good outweighed the bad? Well...I'm here. So I guess thats a yes. I still consider it from time to time, but there are a lot of options I have before I ever do that again.
I don't pretend to understand your particular situation, but know that life is a strange, wonderful, confusing thing. You just being alive in the first place is a crazy one in a trillion chance. Just think of how big the universe is, and how amazing it is that you're right here, right now...not really a reason to push on, but food for thought if nothing else.
