I did not expect to read something so heavy. Maybe add a trigger warning? I'm okay, but damn is this sad.
Never kill yourself, but especially never kill yourself before confessing your pain. It's incredible, how different people's perceptions can be. You might just save your own life, and that of your loved ones too.
Oh I am so glad you're ok. The second you called for a trigger warning my heart just reached right on out for you. I was saying to myself out loud, "oh no, peanuts4life are you ok?" and then you said you were. Such a relief.
And your suicide advice? Top notch. I'm going to make sure that every time I hear someone threaten their own life, I'm going to tell them "Don't. First you have to confess your pain. Don't you know how different people's perceptions can be?"
Then they're going to say "Yo, you're right. I must never kill myself, but especially not before confessing my pain."
Such worldly wisdom, I'm practically speechless.
