Wanting to die is one if the worst feelings there is. I've been there (not because of epilepsy). It will get better. A part of you wants to live, even if only to call for help. Keep that part. Keep calling for help till it gets better. Because it will.
Please, will you let us know you are still here and update us on how you feel?
You may be depending on others now, but it isn't forever. I do hope you will promise yourself and us that you won't hurt or kill yourself. Find other alternatives. What helped before? I like to pray, color, write in my journal, and find people to talk to when I'm depressed. But it took me time to learn to do that. It may take time for you too but you can find alternatives.

I was feeling very depressed last week, but had the wherewithall to dial 911 before trying anything. I just took a deep breath and sat in my recliner until the ambulance came. I'm not sure I'll be able to wait if (when) I get the feeling of trying to kill myself again.
