Experience description:

I was feeling postpartum depression overwhelm with my life. Taking care of 4 kids and living in 2 shared room with other roommates. I had previously had several suicide attempts before this one, but this time I had a specific memory in which resulted in the last time I would attempted to commit suicide to date. I took like a handful of sleeping pills after I put my children to sleep. My youngest was only 5 months old at the time. I started hearing my daughter voice crying and tried to wake up to hold her. My hand went through her body, suddenly I saw a bright light and pray toward the light that please help me my daughter need me right now I will never attempt to kill myself again if you help me. I woke up and remember the time was 6:48am and I looked toward my daughter and attempted to touch her. I felt relief and at peace that day that someone knew my children needed me. Since that day, I did not attempt to kill myself yet. since I was 16 I attempted like around at least 15 time. I do believe there is something beyond us that would watch over our life to help at time when we need the most.
