Love lesson 13: Suicide is never the answer
I know that about half of the people reading this has thought about ending their lives or knows someone that has. I’ve thought about it myself before. I have even tried it once, but I thought about all the people I would be hurting when I left. It’s just not worth it suicide is never the answer. I know there are things in our lives that get us down and there seems like there’s no way out but to just end it all. If you ever feel this way talk to someone that will understand you, and not put you down for the thoughts you are having. My first love was a great guy he always seemed to be happy and laughed all the time. One day I hadn’t heard from him for a few days which was odd. So, I went to his favorite spots to hang out but didn’t see him there. I tried calling him but got no answer. I was sad thinking he was just avoiding me because he wanted to dump me. I wish it was that, but it wasn’t. I ran into one of his friends and he handed me a flyer saying my bf was missing. I was in so much pain and worried sick about him. A week later I was watching the news as they were pulling a body bag up from the river. I don’t know how but I knew it had to be him. I felt so broken. They said it was him that he had jumped off the bridge killing himself. He left behind so many unanswered questions. I was hurting at the time I just wanted to die as well. I couldn’t go near the water for a long time after that and had a lot of nightmares. I didn’t want to get close to anyone. I blamed myself for what he did. This is what you would do to the people that you love if you chose suicide. If you are having thoughts of harming yourself or anyone else, please go get help. Talk to someone. Talk to me I’ve been through it I can help you. Because suicide is never the answer.
