The best
thing in the world is knowing you saved a
life.
One of my best friends was talking to me about committing suicide. Every day she would tell me what was going on in her life. The problems she faced with her family, friends, school, her own self image, anything and everything.
She was texting me and telling me that she was literally one step away from actually going through with it. She lives like a half hour away from me so there was nothing i could do. We dont go to school together so if she did do it, i would have no way of knowing unless it was one the news or something. I was absolutely terrified and worried sick.
She was saying goodbye, telling me to remember all the good times we've had and that she loves me and that everything was going to be okay and i'll be fine without her.
I dont remember the last time i have cried so hard.
I tried saying everything i could possibly think of to try to talk her out of it, nothing seemed to work.
But last night, i finally got through to her. she's not doing it. she's in this world to live another day, and many more to come.
I saved this girl's life and i had never felt that great and relieved before in my life.
Moral of this story:
Anyone can save someone from themself. You may think you don't have the power to help but everyone has that power. The littlest thing might make someone rethink things and not do something they will regret or end their life.
thanks to anyone who actually read this, it made me feel so great i just had to share it somehow.
