"....I have felt your pain, and not just for a few days or weeks or on occasion. I have felt your pain to the core of my soul, for years and years. I have plotted my death too many times to count. Yet, I'm still here. So every day is another chance for me to try to get others to understand that they are not alone, and that depression and loneliness are fixable conditions. The human condition is a beautiful, complex assortment of struggles. You are not alone in this. Suicide is not the answer. Death is final. But, you my friend are reading this now, and I believe you have some hope, even if it's only a tiny little glimmer. I believe you can survive and that you will survive." ~Carrie L. Burns~
