When your life seems to be like a train crash and your world feels so out of control and falling around your shoulders. You start to try to find something to end the pain and chaos.

You can lie in bed and hope that if you go to sleep, you might not wake up in the morning, you try to escape from your life by traveling to another country or taking a different job, some people try drugs or alcohol just to numb or escape what's going around your head and to give you some release.

The problem with all this is that you're with yourself 24/7 and not matter what you do; you can't run away from yourself.

The suicide rate is growing and destroying the lives of families. and if you're in that place in your life where everything is falling apart and there's no other way out for you and the people in your life, would be would be better off if you weren't around, please read this, think about hanging in there.

I've been at the point in my life where ending my life seemed to be the only option I had and it hurt too much to keep living, I tried taking an overdose and had an oops moment, but I survived and put myself into therapy.
I now have a future that I'm passionate about, dreams that I am going to follow.
