I'm happy to be partnering with @asafeplaceinsideyourhead to raise awareness for suicide prevention. One of the most popular myths is that people who are suicidal or experiencing suicidal ideation want to die. Let me be clear. I NEVER ONCE WANTED TO DIE! 😢 I wanted the dissociative episodes that made me feel like I was having a heart attack and dying multiple times a day to stop. 😢 I wanted the vivid and violent nightmares to stop. 😢 I wanted the physical burning sensation of my skin when I dysregulated (which was frequently) to stop. 😢 I wanted the paralyzing urges to hurt myself to stop. 😢 I wanted the relentless thoughts of how worthless I was to stop. 😢 I wanted the feeling that everyone hated me to stop. 😢 I wanted the exhaustion that left me often unable to get out of bed to stop. 😢I wanted the guilt that I was a terrible partner, mom, friend and human being to stop. I almost jumped from the ledge of a Canadian hotel room because I couldn't take these things anymore and nothing was working to stop them. I thought I had nothing left to try. The only thing that saved me was a @linkinpark song coming on at the right place and time. But those things DID stop. I DID find healing. Without drugs, without self harm, without suicide. There are other ways to stop the pain. You can take my FREE 5 day challenge (www.happinessboost.life) to learn the changes I had to make to start finding healing. But there are SO many options. SO many things left to try. Don't keep fighting for others. Keep fighting because you deserve to heal. cre: @amandawebsterhealth . . . . #suicidedisease #suicidelosssurvivor #suicidepreventionweek #suicideawarenessindepression #suicidepreventionawareness #suicideawarenessweek #suicideawarenessday #suicideawarenessmonth #suicidequote #suicidepreventionmonth #suicideaware #suicideboysedit #suicideleopard #suicideroom
