Today is World Suicide Prevention Day.
With that in mind, I wanted to remind you of this video produced by Norwich City; it remains one of the most profound things I've ever seen produced on the subject.
I attempted suicide five times. It took me a full year to recover from my last attempt. I was told it's a miracle I survived.
Not one time was it because of Major Depression or flashbacks from PTSD alone.
It was always a combination of one of those plus financial stress.
My older sister cleared all my debt and paid six months mortgage and utilities so I could focus solely on therapy and healing from my trauma.
That's what controlling what you can looks like, when you want someone you care about to live.
Feeling hopeless and helpless will drive you to your death.
