If you have/had that three day bug, I can understand why ANYONE would wish they were dead! Argghhh!!!! I had that about a month ago, and it damn near DID kill me. And talk about exacerbating my depression! Gadzooks! I was like all panicky and had cold sweats and all that sort of stuff. Boyfriends/spouses, whatever, can be notorious for the insensitivity to their partner's illness, physical or psychological. But he sweety, I've done the suicidal ideation game, and there are no solutions there. You did not mention anything about if you are getting sufficient medical treatment and counseling. Certainly, regardless of your economic status, there is something available for you. And too, this board, now that some of the "heavyweights" are either "back" or lurking, can be a great place for support. True, it's not the same as a hug and a caress. But knowing that someone else actually CARES and understands, because we have (or still are) been there. A lot to be gained and gleaned from shared histories. Keep your chin up, kiddo, and let us know how things are going.
