Suicide, My Secret Thoughts

It's something you never talk about. You really wish you could, but who would understand? People think it's a desperate cry for attention, so you hold it in and you keep it to yourself. It's your secret. They can't see the pain and loneliness that you so desperately long to escape. Feeling like there is no other way to break free from your torment, you entertain thoughts of suicide. Ever since giving in to that very first thought it is as though you opened a door. Now those thoughts unavoidably come back to visit you more frequently, until finally, it's all you can think about. You start to make a plan. Surprisingly you realize there is a sense of excitement on the inside, knowing you have a secret that no one else knows. It gives you a sense of having power and control in your life, something you have not had in a very long time. Within these pages you will hear my story. It is a story of great pain and sorrow. Most importantly, it is a story of hope and healing. If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of harming themselves, please, allow me the great honor of sharing my journey. Imagine climbing a great mountain. Every step brings a new challenge. Every time it rains the ground we walk on turns to mud. We slip and lose our footing, falling backwards just a bit. As we finally get to a place where we are surer of each step, and actually making some progress, we are now able to turn around and throw a life-line to help pull someone else as they are slipping in the mud behind us. My hope is that this book will be that life-line. Please give me a chance. If you even suspect someone of struggling with thoughts of suicide, PLEASE give them a copy of this book. Do it anonymously if you are concerned about over stepping boundaries. If someone you know has been acting strange, or they just don't seem to be acting like themselves. Maybe they are in a daze or maybe they are at the final stages and feeling excited about having a plan. DON'T WAIT! Act now! You may be able to save their life.
