We hear about people taking their own lives because they felt it was their last option and couldn't handle what they were going through. They felt that nobody could understand them and what they were going through.
So many people take their own life for many different reasons that we may not understand. Some can from relationship breakups, job loses, family situations, bullying and many more reasons.
I can pin point with bullying that it can continuously happen time and time again until it gets where you can't handle, can't cope no longer. Some end up with constant voices in their heads of hearing it over and over again. They aren't thinking straight. Don't have a clear mind.
They are either bullied face to face, in schools, home, streets, workplace or social media. It can also be through texting.
Feels like they want to escape the world, feeling nobody understands, feeling alone and feeling like they don't belong here on this earth anymore.
I will say this
Can you honestly really understand if you have never been through it or ever felt that way.
Every person is different in their situation. So many different ways that they consider to end their life and yes, it needs to be talked about because we need to be there for these people who may be considering it or having these thoughts in their heads.
The only problem is though, some people hide it so well that you don't know what they are going through or if they are thinking or contemplating it.
We get so caught up so much in our busy lives tjat we don't see what's happening before its too late.
You stop checking in on people to see how they are doing by text message or ringing them.
Some will say they are fine but you really need to listen to their words and how they speak. The way they speak can really tell you how they are actually feeling.
* Let them know they are never alone.
* Let them know they are loved.
* Let them know you are there for them.
Step back from your busy life and check in on people, see how they are doing, or better yet have a cuppa with them if you can.
If you can do this, you could be saving someone from wanting to take their own life. You could be their one life line.
Be there for each other and lift each other up. Encourage each other and support each other
*Be their life line*.
Here are two songs
"Your Life Matters"
"Su***de"
