Fuck no. Probably the worst year yet and always declining.

I'd kill myself if it wasn't for the fact it'd destroy my mother.

Then talk to her about it. If she's what's keeping you from hurting yourself, then talk to her.

Unfortunately, she's in the same boat.

We do what we can to keep each other going; but that's getting harder and harder.

We're both running out of the will to keep on trying.
