A quick question

Can I say "I'm hanging on a thread not knowing which decision I should go for"?

What I'm trying to convey is that I'm going through a difficult phase making a grand decision that

is going to affect me greatly afterward.

I just wanna make sure if it's a correct.

TIA

No. The idiom is 'hanging by a thread', which refers to a very unstable situation. Perhaps: I'm in a bind / I'm between a rock and hard place not knowing which decision I should make.

Shouldn't the latter be "I'm between a rock and a hard place"?

becasue that's what I saw on the other sites after I googled it.
