(Suicide mention)
September is know for having many important events in it, Hispanic heritage month (woo!), labor day, the remembrance of the 9/11 attack but it is also know for being the month of suicide prevention. Suicide has always been something very serious. Some people see it as escape and many other things. I may get attacked because people will say, “Well how do you know?” Well I understand the feeling of being worthless, numb, dumb, horrible, a waste of space, someone who can never do anything right, and like I am unfixable beyond comparison so why do I keep going? Many people feel this way because something bad had happened in their life or they lost someone or their parents are abusive or whatever the situation is. For me it started with feeling worthless until getting up seemed like a chore. My “friends” were all over the place... I was betrayed multiple times destroying my trust and faith that people could actually be nice to me. I hit my all time low when I started cutting. It felt like a relief and like I was finally human yet I had no idea I was slowly destroying myself in the process. People didn’t believe me when I told them I was depressed, I was always told to keep it a secret when in reality I needed a community... It got worse when I attempted suicide for the first time. I remember I felt so worthless and like all I was to my family was a mistake. Yet I managed to stop myself because people told me how much they needed me and how much they loved me. I tell my friends now who are struggling through hard things like depression and suicidal thoughts, that they can survive and that things can get better. I don’t know what things you are going through but I hope you see this as a message of encouragement and that no matter how low you can get, people still love you, and that people still need you. You don’t have to go into the fight alone because there are people like me who are willing to fight the good fight with you and that you will survive. Just know that people will always love you even if you think they don’t, they do. Just remember that not everything has to end. You got this! You will survive! You’ve made it this far to read this, keep going! We are all proud of you for coming this far. You Got This!
