You are allowed to experience joy while things in your life are unresolved. If you postpone happiness until everything is perfect, you’ll be postponing it forever.
I think one of the craziest things about me is how long I can carry emotional pain without anybody noticing.
I will still laugh, Still answer texts.Still show up.Still make people feel loved. All while quietly falling apart in ways nobody thinks to ask about...
The key to not jumping off a cliff is to remind yourself that your emotions will be different in a week, and to keep busy until then. And to stay away from cliffs.
Suicidal people don’t always want to die. Sometimes they desperately want to live they just can’t see a way to keep living with the amount of pain they’re in. There’s a difference.
What doesn't kill you makes you
ghost all your friends,
lose your appetite, rot in bed all day, lose your academic potential, overthink everything at 3am, stop replying to people you actually love, lose interest in things you used to enjoy, feel tired even after doing nothing
suicide is the saddest thing ever. do you know how dark your thoughts and feelings have to be to get to that point? Praying for anyone dealing with silent battles smh
