As the anonymous who felt judged for possibly crying wolf too often (but not the anonymous to whom you're responding here!) can I just say "thank you"?
My cries are a response to how I feel at the time. Whoever it was who said that they imagined that suicides must be in hell just beforehand is right. I rather suspect that I am actually in hell, that this world is hell, at times.
If people would prefer to turn away, not to know that I'm this close to the edge (and accusing me of crying wolf when I cry out in the hopes that there might be someone there who can rescue me – and I haven't done it on LJ for over a year now, I think anyway), I don't know what I should do instead. I don't imagine they'd rather I didn't have an outlet for such painful feelings and end up killing myself – at least, I really hope that they don't.

Although I haven't knowingly been accused of crying wolf (at least not to my face - though silent responses say as much), your last paragraph is *so* how things feel. It's so difficult to be in so much pain and to know that no-one else can see it - not only do they not understand, but they seem not to trust me either.
As a Samaritan said to me last night, if depression was a physical disease it would be so horrific, so obvious that you couldn't hide it... but as it is, no-one can see it - and that's so awfully isolating. After crying and crying and crying again on people, it's so hard to admit that you *still* feel just as bad - that you *still* need that same support, comfort and reassurance.

Do you mean that you suspect you are damned or do you mean that you are experiencing the torments of hell without the preceding judgment?
