+1 Here are some resources if you do:

National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (network of crisis centers 24/7 for anyone in suicidal crisis or emotional distress) - 1-800-273-8255

Boys Town (licensed trained counselors available 24/7 for kids and parents) - 1-800-448-3000

Good pick-up.

OP, there are people to help, if you need them. It's better for your kids to be broken and alive than permanently gone. That doesn't matter how "broken" you may feel -- just you, being you, is their core need.

All of this, OP. People want to help if you need it.
