Until your best friend at 16 years old texts you saying goodbye & you call the police to do a well check on them and the police barely save your friend (I’ll spare you the details), you won’t understand.
Until you walk in your bedroom to see your sister had cut herself because her heart was so broken, you won’t understand.
Until you see your own parent lose a parent to depression & struggle with depression themselves and pray they don’t end their life, you will not understand.
Until you lose your friend to suicide or find out kids you went to school with died by suicide, you won’t understand.
Until you’ve had to talk your friend out of killing themselves, you won’t understand.
Until you’ve been diagnosed with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, or ptsd, you will not understand.
Until you’ve sat in your bed and cried alone for hours, planning the way to end your life you will not understand.
Until you’ve had to go to mental hospitals, because you’d rather be dead than alive you will not understand.
Until you’ve had to talk yourself out of suicide, YOU WILL NOT UNDERSTAND.
If you or someone you know struggles with a mental health disorder, please drop a heart below. Show the people living in silence that they are not alone. 💗💗💗💗
