How can i keep going?

"Are you okay?" No im not okay but the only response i can get out is "Yes im fine." whenever i express anything other than happiness you call me weak but you cant handle your own feelings? you cant handle the fact that im not perfect? you cant handle the fact you cant see yourself in me.

A lot of communication is superficial.

Hi! How are you?"

"Fine!" Big smile.

Look at photos (easily googled) of those, of all ages, who have taken their own lives. Happy smiling faces, some taken just days before they ended it all. Good looking girls, "fit" guys - all the faces masking struggles that no one understood or knew about.

Surely all we can do is [i]try to talk[/i] ourselves, try to tell it like it is, try to look beyond the smile of others. Reach out to others, let others in. TRY.

Get beyond the soundbites of our "Communication Age"

Reach out, be creative......
