This is the 3rd suicide story I have heard about these past 2 weeks, one of them being an old friend who killed himself, his wife and 2 young children, smh. I knew him as a teenager but somehow lost contact with him over the past 10 years, however when i heard the news i felt guilty for some reason. I wish I could have stayed in contact with him maybe I could have helped in someway.
It breaks my heart to hear about these tragedy’s. Its easy for someone to say they should have reached out for help yet we live in such a selfish society where its all about Me, Me, Me. Nobody talks to anyone anymore. Its all about texting, facebook you name it... Until you have been in situations where u needed urgent help from your so called “friends” u’d never really understand. People will say “I am here if you need anything you know i love you”, seek help and they are either a)absent, b)treat your issue as if its NOTHING, or c)just tell you about their own issues and make you feel guilty for even asking.
People may have there different reasons for committing suicide, I have also been there and honestly the only thing that helped me is ‘Prayer’. I’d say a short prayer before I “do it” and will hear a voice that would tell me to google "I want to Die". When I do, i would see stories about people who survived worst situations than I could ever imagine. You know the saying just when u think ur ‘shit” was bad somebody else’s is in diarrhea mode lol. Seriously! I think we need to start reaching out to people more, gaining people’s trust. Being true Friends. Opening up more to each other. Screw the gossip or worrying about what others may think about you. If you judge me based on my situation then you don't need to be in my life. Now, i only keep people around me who I trust (the list is very short #sad). Once those thoughts come, i get on my knees, cry, fast, pray and just focus my attention on positive things. People may say go to the gym but trust me when you have flat-lined with depression, you lack energy.
When i start feeling sorry for myself:) I talk to God ( he is my friend), take a class, start a project, talk to a trusted friend ( u have to feel people out u'd be shocked that some ple do care). Read books, go on long walks and just enjoy nature. I'd see ple who society may render "beyond poverty level" (whatever that means) so happy and yet id say to myself i can breath, i have my sight, sense of smell, my arms, legs, a degree, what is my problem? There are people in the world who would give anything to live my life.
If you know me you know i am a FIGHTER. When i see others overcoming worst situations i am like heck i could do it also. That's been my journey so far. My story is deep, i shall tell it one day….. If I can do it you can do it also. We can overcome together and be Fighters:-)
**My Prayer: (I am very honest with God, I see him as my friend & Father. I have no formal routine of prayer just Respect)
“ Father God, I am tired… I have done it all yet this situation still exists. I have no will to live Lord, disappointments all over the place, I know you brought me into this world for better you are my only hope. Please speak to me in anyway. You have made this world a beautiful place and I MUST enjoy it to the fullest. Please show me your will for my life.” Thank You Lord”
After, I’d read Psalm 23.*****
For all those thinking about suicide pls Pray and reach out to someone. There are many christian blogs or whatever your religion is I am sure if you reach out they would help. We are all serving one God but different methods whichever works for you. Christianity is my way of communicating with God.
Remember, YOU ARE A FIGHTER.
Nick Vujicic has an amazing inspiring story. He is a true Fighter. He decided that his physical limitations would not stop him from reaching his goal. I mean he freakin surfs and I am such a chicken lol God Bless Him. A true inspiration. Check out his website.
