advice question?

Does anybody have advice on dealing with people after they finda out you are thinking about suicide. people are now pressuring me to tell them why/what went wrong and whether they did something to trigger it. I keep telling them I'll talk to a counsler about it not you ect. Tell the people that had no involvement in my decision they did nothing wrong. & how do I talk to people to get them to treat me better & tell them how they made me felt all the time. I'm not sure how to deal with them or how to talk tell them things.

This is a very personal matter, Livenlearn. ITA with Lori that sharing details isn't necessary with family/friends @ this time. Perhaps in the future there will be individuals you'd like to confide in. For now, it is very fresh in your mind & painful. If you feel that you're being pressured for a response, there is nothing wrong in saying just that. "This is too painful for me to discuss. I am working on getting well. I need to direct all my energy to how I'm feeling now. Not the past." Use your own words. That is JMHO. GL! (((hugs))) jan

What you an lori said makes sense, I don't want to hurt anybody by what I say. A phycology Student taked to me and suggested me using a journal to write down everything from day to day so I do not forget anything when I go to the counsler & i would be able to refer back to the journal when I needed to. But I am and always been scared someone would find it and read it. I just know my dad keeps bugging me asking "so are you going to tell me what happened whats going on" I just tell him nope, I'll go to a counsler for that. & my uncle wants to know why, b/c he lost his son(my cousin) to suicide 7 yrs ago. He said he didn't get to ask why before & didn't want to loose that chance this time. I feel bad b/c I know he went thru this before ect. now they are hoovering asking too many questions stressing me out more. lol
Thanks for the input/advice
