What is love?
It is a feeling, it is a natural healer. Love is the thing that we seek most in this life. It is immeasurable and intangible.
So what happens when we can’t feel it?
You ache for it, you cry, you feel alone. For some the only answer is death.
Suicide is not selfish.
Suicide is your brain trying to find a way to fix something by killing you.
Suicide is your brain literally and metaphorically killing you.
Suicide is a last resort after reaching out in every way you know possible.
And you have tried so hard, haven’t you?
You fight a battle in your head every day just to breathe and keep breathing.
Hoping someone will come and save you from drowning in yourself.
You have been fighting so hard, all there is left to do is to give up right?
Wrong.
Suicide isn’t the answer even if it feels like it. It only transfers your sadness to someone else.
No you aren’t crazy. Yes you are loved. We don’t know how to show it to you correctly because we don’t live inside of your brain. Some people don’t have the right words to say.
The cliché of “You have your whole life to live” is right in purpose but it is so hurtful.
Don’t you think we have tried everything possible to get over this?
So here is the truth: It isn’t your fault you feel this way. There is hope even in the darkest heart. It takes time to heal. It comes in waves. You will heal with the right help. Just hold on and keep trying. I know it’s scary but there are so many that care and want to help you. They just don’t know what’s wrong or how to communicate with you. Keep trying to live. We will get through this together.
