RE: Depression Is Real But Suicide Is Not The Answer (RIP Chester Bennington)

in #life7 years ago

I saw a tweet today that said, something along the lines of, "people aren't suicidal because they want to die, but because they just want the pain of life to stop." Depression is something that is hard to get away from when it's affecting you because it affects every part of your life, whether you show it or not. @sauravrungta you're right - suicide is not the answer. I would also encourage people to reach out for counseling, therapy, or medication if they're feeling suicidal. If anyone reading this is struggling, just know that you are not alone and there are resources to help the pain stop in healthy ways. USA Suicide Prevention Hotline: Call 1-800-273-8255.
