Let Us Talk About Suicide. Have You Ever Felt Like Taking Your Life? by HardMirror(m): 5:24pm On Aug 10, 2018
Most times when we talk about suicide or discuss people who committed suicide, we often blame them or label them cowards. It is also popular to hear people say those who commit suicide would end up in hell as punishment.

Let us not be quick to judge those who commit suicide.

Depression is real and it can be very overwhelming.
Truth is it hurts when a loved one takes his/her life but we should not be quick to use that single act to judge such people.


I have suffered depressing at several points of my life and i understand how it can be. It only ends in suicide when:

1. You keep to yourself: share the problem with friends.
2. Have close friends and family members that you can share your burdens with.
3. Look at the big picture. Your problem most times is not as bad as you think. Ask yourself 'What is the worst thing that would happen?'
Then ask yourself aint there people in worse situations?
4. Laugh at yourself and call yourself stvpid. yeah we all very stvpid. You broke? Damn! Laugh at yourself. Your bf/gf just broke up with you? Laugh! In serious debt? Laugh!
5. Consult with others on the problem, get different perspectives even if you dont let them know you are the one in the situation

Hedonistic me has never thought of such. No bad condition lasts forever, you just gotta see the silver linings but it's also important to have a confidant, someone you can talk to.

Yea...

The very day I had an F-grade in the university.
Since I never did carry out the act, nothing else has and would ever make me feel that depressed again.

You would understand if you knew how brilliant I was academically in high school and then expectations that followed suit from the school, friends, family, Myself, the society at large.

The memory makes me realize how stupid I was when the society does not even give a fvck about my existence let alone wellbeing.

After losing my parents and feeling all alone, I tried to take an overdose. I just had a stomach run and started throwing up. I spent a couple of hours in the toilet shitting and poking, and nobody was none the wiser. It's been my lil secret. I get the thoughts often and it scares me but I just use those feelings as evidence that I need to know better to do better, so I change my way of life. I use it as a guidance system so as to say .
