Suicide Awareness - Tumblr Posts

I’ve never known Etika, and people have been poorly treating this incident. His situation is a cause for advocacy, and I want to do what I can.

As mental health continues to be a topic we tip-toe around, I wanted to share a list of hotlines - and three of the most positive, and forward people that continue to advocate for better mental health

If ya need a distraction and/or positivity -take a look at what Jack, Joe, and Brian have to say.

Please take the time to examine your current mental health state.

you loved reading

but now you aren’t here to enjoy it

i vow to read so many books it makes up for the ones you lost

i wish you were here

more than fucking anything

today was a tragic day for the COD cosplay fandom. i am not one to be interested nor do i really get those types of videos on my for you page.

about a week ago, i came across a keegan's mask (whose account is now deleted) video "exposing" inquisitore3 for grooming and pedo activity. i wasn't invested in the drama but it was still in my mind. i didn't think much of it because she didn't bring much context or evidence to the table for us to observe.

then, maybe two days ago, i saw a video of some moron(s) breaking into his house. for what? i will do not know.

and comes today. i received the devasting news that inquisitore3 took his life on live the day prior. my heart sunk. i may not have known much about the creator but an innocent life was taken because minors were bored with their lives. it's a shock to me how low humans will go for any type of entertainment.

i may not be the right person to speak on this, but i feel sorry for those...incels. i feel sorry that they are so messed up to the point that they drive a man to insanity and suicide. i feel sorry for keegan's mask for her lack of morals and self-respect for herself that she can make fun of a pained man and only acknowneledge her mistake when an irreversable choice was made.

there are so many words i could type about but i would be here for centuries.

my deepest condolences to his family and friends. he will be deeply missed.

As it being suicide prevention month, I want to draw attention to 3 court cases. Suicide via bullying, suicide via coercion, suicide via manipulation. All of these people had preexisting mental health and depression and trauma. Aubrey's case is the most recent, still on going. Absolutely disgusting from every single angle you look at it.

I found tumblr during therapy. My own little corner of the world where I could work out my traumas, my hurt, my pain, where no one saw me. My blog. My journal.

I spent so much time to make sure I was alone.

So sure. Bully me, bc that's exactly what you've done for almost a year. That's the word for it. Harass me. Make fun of me. Tear me down. Speak on things you have no clue about. Use intimidating and control and anger. Show how unstable and dangerous you can be. Both of you. Show your bpd. You hpd. Your npd. Your bipolar.

Yall are no different then these people.

September is suicide prevention month which means that for next few however many weeks, there is going to be a lot of posts saying "you're not alone," you matter," "suicide isn't the solution," and "there is so much to live for," and i won't deny that those words are true and may resonate with many people, but as someone who has dealt with suicidal thoughts MY WHOLE LIFE, that just doesn't help me. so i'm going to make the post that would've helped me as a kid.

it's not your fault that you are the way you are. i know you think you would be better off being a little less, less and less and less and dead. then you'd be loved by the people around you. you'd be loved by the world, the sun in winter, the fish in the ocean, the stars in the night, the music on the radio. being dead will not make you any easier to love, and even if it did, you won't get to receive that love because you will be dead. you think you don't belong in this world, and don't listen to everyone who says "you'll find your place" because you don't need to find "your place," it is not your responsibility to belong.

Today is the day my mom took her life.

She was 31. There's no existing photos of her...

In 2 months I will officially have made it past both my parents ages. The youngest child.

It's surreal.

This year was a tough one. But I made it. I've been counting birthdays since I was 27.

Someone could have saved my mom from everything she went through and no one ever did. I'm not angry at her. I get it. I understand why she used to escape the life she had. I'm deeply hurt I was put in so many of the situations I was put in as a kid because she couldn't pull herself out of her own. I didn't deserve it. But neither did she. She was only doing the best she could, until she couldn't anymore.

Her birthday is on the 11th.

My sister's birthday is also today, so the whole thing is just so shitty.

Thanks for all the life lessons I guess.

soon the eastern sky will shine light on your path so you can start walking [ 1990 - 2017 ]

(tw: Mentions of self-harm and suicide)

Hello, friends.

I have some sad news this morning. My friend committed suicide on Wednesday and I just learned about it. I'll be inactive for a while as I take time to grieve.

This is also a reminder to everyone out there that you are loved and appreciated. It's okay to not be okay. What's not okay is suffering in silence. If you ever need help, reach out to someone about it. Don't hold it in. People love and care about you. There is ALWAYS someone who cares.

With a sad heart and pleading hands,

-Rey

You Got This

(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!

Reasons to Be Alive

I’ve noticed lately that many people across social media (mostly Facebook) have been saying that the most important reason not to kill yourself is because “you are someone’s child/friend/sibling/partner etc”. Their intentions are good, and caring about your loved ones is wonderful, but today I’m going to tell you that when it comes to finding reasons to survive, it’s okay to be selfish! It’s okay to want to be alive because of your own happiness! So here’s a few other reasons to be alive tomorrow, the day after, and the day after that!

You might hear an awesome joke tomorrow.

You might see a cute animal!

That show you’re super into? The finale’s probably going to be heckin awesome.

Your favorite director/studio is probably working on a super cool film right now.

If you’ve been thinking about a project lately, I’m sure it’s going to be incredible when finished.

Do you want to learn sign language? How about Korean? Go for it!

There’s still time to meet someone you look up to.

Remember that book you haven’t finished yet? The end is the best part.

If someone doesn’t believe in you, stick around just to prove them wrong.

You have so many good naps left to take.

Want to travel? Can’t travel right now? Maybe one day soon, you will!

What if you see someone super cute tomorrow?

You still have time to change the world, in any way!

Make art make art make art make art make art

Someday you’ll be in the perfect position to make that pun you thought of in the shower last week. Don’t let a great pun like that go to waste.

Guaranteed you’ll hear a new favorite song soon. It will get stuck in your head, but you’ll love it (for a while).

There are tons of video games you haven’t played that you would love!

Live because you have so much happiness left to experience.

Live because you have so much happiness left to experience.

Live because you have so much happiness left to experience.

There are literally millions of super shiny pennies just waiting to be found. Like holy shit.

Please feel free to add to this list! I encourage it! Just please keep the positivity going. :)
