this hits hard for me. i just lost my family member to suicide and this made me really think.
edit: thank you all for the support. 💜

This genuinely made me cry. Especially the doggo part. I was planning to self-exit next week so I had time to spend time with my loved ones, but this really snapped be back to reality. I got this video for a reason.

this really hit me. ive been struggling with suicidal thoughts for the last few weeks. I feel so unheard in my own home. I look in the mirror and hate my reflection. My relationship with my gf seems to be getting more and more rocky. Im just so scared. I look around at my life and im so confused at how i could’ve gotten to where I am. I was happy. I was thriving. Then i got hit down hard, and for a while, didn’t get up. Im so sad all the time, but i never thought about how the morning after would look. The way my family would react to what happened. My dog crying for me to come back. All my friends at school wondering where I went over break. I haven’t told anyone my thoughts because i don’t want them to worry, but this video… like really inspired me to get up and be vocal, so i wanted to share that with you all. You have a voice. Use it. You have friends. Talk to them. You are not alone. You are loved. And even if it is no one to love you, you got me. God bless each one of you.

God, that hits hard. The dog not knowing that their owner is dead and being curious where they are, that’s just sad to think about.

Every video that is to try to stop ppl from commiting never sits right with me. I always feel weird and it doesnt make me eant to stop, this video actually does. This hits hard

This is genuinely one of the most touching shorts I have ever watched.

[Terppusher]

I remember my grandpa showing me all of this then telling me it wasn’t my time yet… as I can back and saw everyone screaming and the tears I felt my self shatter…. It’s not worth missing out on the potential you have 💯 you are never alone please know that

I needed to hear this. I tried three times and eventually ended up in a mental health center because I hated myself so much I didn't want me to exist. My life was a downward spiral and every day it seemed like it was getting worse. The last time I tried I actually wrote a note saying that the world was better off without me in it. My brother knocked on the door, asking to come in, not knowing I was silently dying on the other side. I untied myself, got up, opened the door for him and pretended like everything was okay. I was so mad. Why did he have to knock? Why couldn't I have just finished what I started? But now I realize that maybe God sent him to knock on the door, because he knew I was too scared to let my brother see me like that. Every day I am feeling better. I go to therapy, take antidepressants, and have become less closed off than I used to be. I love life now, but it's still hard. I am learning to love myself, regardless of my mistakes, the things that happen to me, living in a broken home, and so much more. I now realize that mistakes are a part of me and I need to love every part even if I don't like it. So please, if you're reading this, learn to love yourself. You are worth so much more than you think ❤

On the 9th of August the police showed up at my door, they told me that my dad passed away from suicide. I broke down crying and screaming and the first thing I did was call him.. he never picked up. A week later I viewed his body at the funeral home, he looked so sad. It was so painful realising that I would never get to call him, talk to him, tell him how my day was, he will never meet my kids, never walk me down the aisle. He left a letter on the bedside table before he committed and it said “ I’m sorry it has to be like this, tell Ava and James I love them and I’m sorry for being a shit Dad.” It broke me knowing he died thinking he was a shit dad when he was the best dad I could’ve asked for. The pain from losing him is like a big weight on my chest and a huge pill stuck in my throat it hurts.. I pray that anyone who is feeling like this get help because the pain of losing someone you love is unbearable ❤

Today a couple of minutes ago, I prayed to God saying if he didn't give me a sign to not commit then I would follow through. Just now I opened YouTube and this was the very first short that showed up. God is good.

I can’t be the only one thinking that everything is so bright and dull before & after an attempt. I like being alive, but I don’t want to live the way I do now. I’ve only ever had actual notes for two of my attempts, I kind of wish I wrote more for people, but I didn’t want them to see me after they read those letters.

It’s been a couple months since I’ve attempted, the only reasons I’m still here is bc of burden I think I’ll feel on the verge of death. That is no way to live, I’ve been told, but it’s enough to keep me going.

I would rather be one of many fruits than the tree who lets them fall.

I’m sorry for venting, the pet part got to me, please accept my apology if this made you feel bad.

I can’t believe I debated taking my own life before. Because now, I am where I wished I were when I was in the slumps. I wouldn’t be experiencing all these wonderful memories - the small joys, disappointment, breakthrough, breakdowns, hopefulness, helplessness, success and more. Each and every memories are special, nothing I would feel if I committed before. Thank you Lord for saving me.

[humankirk]

genuinely have a pit in my stomach from this. its so devastating to look at it from this angle, but so important. my heart goes out to anyone struggling right now, i truly hope you find your peace. (also there this book called “a breath too late” that covers this exact aspect. it’s a sad story, but it’s beautifully done and i wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone this video resonated with)
