Suicide is not really about wanting to die, it’s about wanting pain to stop. Identify the exact nature of your pain, find others who beat that pain, and ask them to teach you new solutions. Some pain can’t be stopped and only adapted to, but so many live in needless agony.

I am realizing that I have not dealt well with chronic pain for the last 10 years at least, and need to come up with new approaches, because all I have done to deal with it is use unhealthy coping mechanisms, and eliminated activities I love/d.

I’d make a joke about cars being the problem, but wow, this is awful. No wonder you’re struggling. This would send me into a tailspin. What are you doing to keep yourself going?

If you don't mind a piece of advice. Find yourself a really good therapist and physiotherapist. One to get your body back to as much function as possible and the other to help you through the trauma. It's incredible what the human body can bounce back from with supportive care.
