I made my first post yesterday, which really helped me, I feel. I was afraid everyone was going to tell me I was stupid and didn’t belong here, but that’s not what I heard. It was kind of nice, talking to people who care, even if they are strangers. Every other time I tried to talk to someone I knew I received a reaction and response that made me want to kill myself even sooner. People here actually took the time to read and even respond to me.
I don’t care if you read my post or not, but you must have read someone’s post here. You should let them know that you took the time to care about them and their problems.
Yesterday was the first day in six years I didn’t want to die, just because someone cared enough to read my post.
I even smiled yesterday.
I think you all are pretty great people, and I truly hope you all stick around. <3

hope you smile more often
I try everyday. Thank you. 🙂
This is a family of broken people. No one could ever expected that just one post could extend someone’s life…
I’ve been on SP for 3 years. I was suicidal, but now I can overcome my depression. I am a survivor. But it will never stop me from coming again to SP once in a while… To help other people here, just like how people here have helped me back then.
I will always belong here.
I like the way you put that. “Family of broken people.” That’s exactly what we are. I’m glad you cared enough to stick around for the ones who haven’t yet made it through. I hope to be that person someday too.
Reading this post and the comments made me smile.
I’m glad you smiled.
I read all of your posts that you have on here. I hope that’s not weird.
You should continue your art of every form–writing, poetry, drawing. I think they’re all really well done by you. I’m sorry about your past as well, no one deserves to go through what you went through. I hope the doctors figure out your pain, and I hope it stops so you can have the normal life you deserve, only better and exciting to make up for your childhood. Please stay strong. <3
That means a lot, thank you so much. No, it’s not weird. I read yours too after I commented on your post earlier today. I hope you read this; your kindness just brightened my day up a little… Stay strong you too.
You are an inspiration, I hope you can smile more often
