Many a time it happens that we get stressed to an extent that we think of committing suicide, but that's a weird thought. I never thought of the same ever. But I know many people think of it when they face this situation.
I have actually contemplated suicide. I wished to run in front of a moving car and get crushed to death. But I never had the courage to. It was the point that I felt like everything was over for me. I had an extra year in college and my parents abandoned me, calling me a total failure. I didn't believe in life again and I really wished to end it all. But I am happy I didn't as I have made tremendous achievement in life after that.
This is the truth: many of the people want to kill themselves but don't have the courage to do so. It looks easy to harm ourselves, but when we actually have to do it, we fear. There are many instances when someone eats poison but then cries and asks people to save him/her.
I’ve experienced times when life felt overwhelming and dark thoughts started to surface. Truthfully opening up makes a big difference. Even brief conversations with friends or family can ease the burden. I also keep myself occupied with music writing or some kind of activity. Honestly having thoughts, about suicide means you need help not that you’re fragile. I’ve learned that seeking support doesn’t make you a burden because life can be very stressful. It also offers instances that bring a smile back to your face even when it seems hopeless.
