    First and foremost, seek help.

    Secondly, realize that for most those feeling are nothing more than chemicals in the body gone sack, so you cannot trust your feelings.

    Third, meditate and start looking within for beauty and solace.

    Lastly, volunteer and help others. That is the best medicine.

    The people in your life, such as your family, that you will permanently harm and perhaps even emotionally destroy, should you be so stupid as to actually go through with it. It is the most selfish act possible because it only ends YOUR problems. You leave your family to pick up the pieces. Do you also know that should you do it, the likelihood of another family member doing the same dramatically increases? Think about it.

    Trees. Watching ocean waves slapping a beach. Sunny days. Spring. Baby animals. Good music. Art. Halloween. Sitting on a patio and watching the people who walk past. A book you can't put down. Warm summer nights with lots of visible stars in the sky. Laughter. Sneezing. Feeling cozy. The way it feels when a plane speeds down the runway. The smell of baking bread.

    So many things. We have a beautiful world, and should try to stay here as long as we can. Lift your head, honey. It always gets better.

    This. I lost a family member and it was and is still difficult. It's the simplest things in life that bring joy. Playing with your kids or pets. The feel of sunshine on your skin. The way the air smells after it rains. The sound of the ocean.

    i already go to a psychologist every week..

    My advice would be to ask his or her opinion about your idea to make a list. (Honestly, I don't know whether or not it's a bad idea...I'm an accountant, not a psychologist...but they would probably have some professional thoughts on the idea. Either way, best of luck to you.)

    Stop thinking about writing a list. Write a list of things you are grateful for. Write a list of one hundred things you are grateful for. When you are done think about each one and concentrate on multiplying that grateful feeling by ten, or if you can, by one hundred. Make sure you include some of the things you love about yourself:). Then report back and tell us how you feel!!!
