That Strange Sadness: The Morning After a Suicide Attempt
Waking up from a suicide attempt is a peculiar feeling and is one that ultimately only 6% of people will ever experience. My attempt was not a cry for help. I don’t believe that such things exist. A person who attempts might regret the decision instantly but in the second that they actually make it, they mean it.
Living in the Aftermath of Suicide
Losing someone you love to suicide changes you, and you look back at every conversation you’ve had with that person and see everything as a sign and wonder how you could have missed them.
Life Is Worth Living
Life and its problems have a way of eroding us in a similar way, but beautiful things can be made from that process. The Grand Canyon is testament to that. My life is testament to that. A working masterpiece that will just get more amazing with time.
