Suicide is something I've struggled with since I was 14 years old. Those thoughts stayed with me until two years ago. I was suicidal every day for months and I never thought I’d be happy again. But I was wrong. To anyone reading this that feels alone like I did… You are not alone. We can’t do this alone. And I promise if you ask for help, you can find true happiness again one day. You deserve to be happy. I am. You got this. Please...
