You think that suicide is the only option left for
you?
Wrong.
Suicide is a
permanent solution for
temporary problems. The problems that you have
now won't last forever. Why do you want to
do it? Is it that you think nobody would care?
That the world would be a better place without your presence?
You are wrong. You never know who you were
supposed to become. What if you were destined to grow up to be an
inspirational person who helps millions? Don't throw
away what could be. Are you thinking about anybody but
yourself in this? Have you thought about your poor parents? They
will be broken, forever. They will never be the
same. They will blame themselves. They will
wonder what they did wrong. They will hate
themselves. They will carry the pain of your death with
them wherever they go. Think about your friends. The ones who
love you exactly the way you are. Think about
the pain they will feel when they hear the news. They will
collapse on the floor in tears. The tears will not stop,
the tears will never stop. Do you want
to do that to them? Everyone you ever talked to will die daily.
They will be forced to bear the pain of knowing that they
couldn't help you enough. The guilt will drive them to hate
themselves. Just seeing your name somewhere will cause them to
break down. Think about your classmates, the kids you have gone
to school with since you were little. The kids you thought hated
you? They will hate themselves instead. They
will blame themselves. Maybe they shouldn't have picked on
you, maybe they shouldn't have joked around with you. Were
they the reason you decided to take your own life? The pain will
be undying. The guilt will consume them alive.
Your classmates won't be able to hold back the tears when
they see your empty chair in the classroom. Do you really want to
spread the pain your feeling into the hearts of anyone you've
ever known? By killing yourself, you would be leaving everyone
broken, hurting. Everybody you thought didn't care? They all
care more than you can believe. What if you were someones reason
for living? Now, they have no hope left, you destroyed
them. Are you willing to do that to someone you care
about? Are you willing to ruin their lives because you
couldn't think of any other solution to your problems? The
only answer is suicide? No. Suicide is
contagious, you never know whose life you could
be taking along with yours. Are you willing to risk
someone else's life? Your friends, your family, your
future family. Those siblings that copy your every move now, look
up to you. Do you want them to follow you into the
darkness? There are people out there fighting to
keep their lives, don't waste yours.
There are other options, always.
"I couldn't even be mad at him, because this was who he
was. This was who he'd always been.
He'd never lied about that.
He gave and then he took away.
I
felt it in the pit of my stomach, the
familiar ache, that lost, regretful feeling only he could give
me. I
never wanted to feel it
again.
Never,
ever."
