Look,
You should be thankful, you got a chance to live. And everyone must know, nobody ever said that life is easy. I know the feeling of pain and not being loved, or teased by the one you love, problems at home or just a feeling you get out of the blue, that really hurts, that you just want to be in a dark room, nodody knowing where you’re at, no food, or social connection, or lights.. just slowly languishing. To be honest, I’ve thought about suicide a lot. And yes, I’ve hurted myself, with just scratches on my hand, I was just so angry, and I didn’t even know the reason, but afterwards I did realize for what it was, I just couldn’t handle the pain anymore, so I had to do something, and that seemed to be the only reason that helped. I didn’t want to talk to anyone, just wanted to be alone. But see, I’m still here, you know, you gotta move on, show people that you really are strong. You don’t always have to fake a smile, just take a look at the bright side of life. And yes I know, that’s easy said. I still struggle too. Suicide is not always an answer to your problem.. You really gotta think about it before you decide to do it. I just wanna say, I believe everyone has an inner beauty, and keep believing in yourself even in those hard and dark days. Keep repeating ‘I’m srtong so I Â move on, I’m strong, so I move on…’ Â believe me, it hepls. 🙂

Nice post!
One thing to say. Bullshit.
I’m suicidal and I don’t agree with ur post… if someone isn’t “thankful” that they are alive it’s ok , no one HAS TO BE THANKFUL that they are ALIVE . Some people are in immense pain everyday or suffering from cancer. Should they have to be thankful that they are alive? Some people want to be put out of their misery and pain.Not everyone can be “strong”. Suicide sometimes is an answer to a never ending problem. I respect your opinion but I DON’T agree.
You know.. I was gonna add some of the same statements about how some people suffer really bad pain but I left it out because the poster wasnt bashing on anyone. They forgot to mention a small part about terminaly ill people yes..but they deserve a little credit for the encouragement factor. They didn’t tell anyone that they are lazy or pretending.
But yes it lacks a bit of depth and perspective as a post.
The problem is that when every day is that darkness that you speak of, it’s get harder and harder to see that positive side. I’m sure it’s there somewhere but it’s just become impossible to find. I know you mean well but this post relates more to the general population just trying to truck through life, not really to us here.
the only chance I got to “live” is in a body that was never intended for actual living, too disabled,
and a bleak world to lay my bleak body down in
so I am not thankful for the “gift” of being born into this nightmare, had been far better off in whatever state I was in before
