When you feel like ending your life

What keeps you holding on? What or who is it that you carry on fighting for? We all have something that's stopped us at some point, or else we likely wouldn't be here.

I think when people say they want to die, it's just their way of venting their frustrations. I don't really believe they want to die, I know cause I've said it also. I'm scared of actually facing death lol so I'll say it but I won't act on it because I know no matter how long, how hard, things seem, God will be there through it all, giving me the strength I need to keep pushing. And life can also surprise you in good ways so that's what I try to focus on when I'm down. Just like bad things happen, good things that you would never expect can happen also but you'll never get to find out if you're not here.

@PrettyGurl24 haha I get that just something to shock others into knowing where you mind state is at, like a cry for help. I was never wired like that, when I tried to go I didn't tell no one I didn't leave no notes didn't say good bye just smiled and acted no different than usual. I just did it because I truly didn't wanna be here anymore and don't wanna chance someone bringing me back to life. Whenever I tried I did it right. See when I feel like letting go I really wanna go and wouldn't try anything to compromise my suicide. Hate that I'm like that I can't imagine the hell ive put my mama through.

@PrettyGurl24 Talk to anyone who works for a suicide hotline and you will find that statement to be false, people do say they want to die and then do it in frightening numbers. Never trivialise someones suicidal thoughts.

@ZenKitzune I'm speaking for the ones that's still here. As for the ones that actually acted on it. I wish they would have fought harder & Satan is a liar. He'll make the vulnerable believe that suicide is the answer to life's problems.

@PrettyGurl24 Such a simplistic view, must be nice.
PrettyGurl24 · 26-30, F
@ZenKitzune Simple to simple minds. We're all in a spiritual battle. And Satan is real and when you're depressed you're vulnerable to his attacks. He comes to kill, steal, & destroy. I know what I'm talking about. I've been through & overcame depression.

@PrettyGurl24 well done. I'm not a fan of blaming Satan for things, I like to take responsibility for my own actions.

@ZenKitzune Yeah I didn't say blame Satan for everything but he plays a part also.
