I was suicidal in Silicon Valley, having just been fired from my dream job at Stanford.

I'm still alive, and I'm glad that I am. My life is still pretty wretched, but my perspective is different. My misery isn't any less, but I'm out from under it. It's no longer crushing me and I can observe my misery with some detachment now.

I hope that you manage to get out from under your misery. Don't let it crush you.
