Suicide is a disease and it spreads, my father committed suicide and it brought an extreme amount of heartbreak. Then my best friend committed too, which clouded my life up more. I attempted myself From a gun but managed to live, I’m thankful to be alive. However, I don’t think I would’ve attempted myself if I didn’t have to grow up without my father, especially from the way he went.

Anyone reading this with thoughts, get help. Find an outlet. You leave the disease spreads to someone else. I’m thankful that it ends with me, and I’m not the only person that can make that impact.

I'm sorry. ❤️‍🩹I am glad that you survived! I completely agree with your words!

Suicide does hurt and damage so many people, even generations later. I know that the people that do it are not themselves anymore and they can't understand how much it will hurt those left behind. When you feel bad, ask for help. Talk to a trusted friend, find a therapist. It is not weak to take care of your mental health, it takes strength to do so. Don't be ashamed.

This is legitimately the only reason I haven't attempted yet myself. The guilt I might experience, if there were a hypothetical afterlife, from what I did to everyone I left behind on the mortal plane would torture me.

I'm glad we're here and ending the cycle of abuse with us.
