Description
Setember 10th is suicide awareness day.This is a tender day for me because I know what it's like to be there. I know what it's like to feel like death is the only option... the only conceivable way to make the pain just... go away...
I still fight to not go back to that place..
Some days it's hard.
some days it's easier...
If someone had only shown me kindness... given me a hand... Instead of abandoning me, leaving me alone in the world... I might not have attempted, and almost lost my precious life.
Please, show you care this september 10th. Show anyone and everyone the kindness that I never had when I needed it most. <3

I just now saw this today and I want to thank you. You most likely don't know who I am or anything about me just this picture really means a lot to me I tried taking my own life last year and I started losing all my friends for it even my girlfriend left me becaus wi did that. It really made me feel so... Alone I guess.
I'm sorry I feel like I'm complain to you but thank you for making me feel a little less alone in the world

no problem. Everyone goes through sad times, but it's only those who really truely experience it that really have a tough time recovering. Trust can be lost, friends can leave, anything can happen when one is in such a fragile state. I'm sorry that you too have experienced what it's felt like to want to take your own life. It does suck, but people have promised me that it does get beter, and I'm taking their word.
It's a leap of faith.

I know what it's like to be there with two failed attempts on my life.
Everything does get better, though you still have to deal with the storm from time to time.
I wore yellow and wrote love on my wrist to help support others like me.
Beautiful picture.

that's so sad : ( I'm so sorry for your loss <33 These things shouldn't happen, but they do. A lot of them are preventable, and it tears families and communities apart sometimes : (
I'm truely sorry

I hope she doesn't too! Every life is precious and should be kept and lived through. Although now may suck and it may seem like it's taking a long time to get anyplace worthy of anything, later in life I think those who've suffered the most now, will have it that much better : )

yeah, people say it... i just didnt do it because i have some real friends there and i dont want to make them suffer if they care and such... i hope this will end. im listening to music and drawing more to distract myself by those thoughts and im speaking more with my friends, telling them how i feel and asking for help... i did 2 journals about it because it was a long time i kept all that shit in me and i couldnt do it anymore D:

oh man... seriously?... There've been no suicides at my school, but I don't doubt that there are people who think about it a lot.
There was an attempt at my old school, luckily her friends were there with her and stopped her though.
