An ex friend of mine tried to take his life today. Fortunately he wasn't successful. Unfortunately our relationship ended because of his substance abuse. Even then if he had called or text I would have been there for him. Talk to someone instead of letting it eat you inside. If you don't feel you can do that then call:
National Suicide Hotline
1-800-273-8255
Available 24 hours everyday
There's help out there just ask for it.
Truth.
Even if you don't realize it, you probably have a lot of people in your life that would rather listen to what's on your mind than listen to somebody else tell them you're gone.
Oooof. Man, I've lost friends to suicide. It really sucks.
Just the other day I read an article about a young woman who attempted to end her life with a firearm. The attempt was even worse than the completion, she's blind and needing a second face transplant.
Suicide is a bad choice, and can be even worse than you fear. Reach out, get help.
You guys (the royal you) have talked me off the ledge more than a few times these past few years. The dark place came early and often. Enough of you could read into what I was posting to see I needed help.
Help isn't always a 1-800 number, or an intervention. It might be as simple as a PM, "Hey, buddy, everything Ok?"
To those that helped, I thank you.
