Today is World Suicide Prevention Day.
As most of you might now, I blog for suicide prevention often. I think it’s very important that suicide stops being a taboo and people just talk openly about it.
Being suicidal is NOT something to be ashamed of!
Being depressed is NOT something you should have to hide!
Reach out, there are people who care.
I am right here and I care.

Don’t Judge, Just Care.
Lots of Love

Suicide
–
It seems so easy
No more pain
Just one little step
And your life becomes in vain
–
It’s just so tempting
No more sorrow
A couple of pills
And no more tomorrow
–
It seems about right
No more suffering
Just one little cut
And no more fighting
–
It’s just so soothing
No more contest
Just one quick shot
And you’re finally at rest
–
Just jump of the bridge
Across the river of life
Lights out, forever blind
But what of the hurt?
–
For those you’ll leave behind…
–
– Just Patty –
Wow Patty! Both the poem the photo and all of it stunning! ❤ So awesome!
Thank you so much Michelle! 🙂

Love the hugz! And you sweet Patty! you are amazing! ❤
I think I may need to write one of these too. For me, suicidal thoughts are in the long-ago… but I have children, nieces, nephews, and siblings dealing with it now… and I am potentially one of those left behind to do the hurting. This kind of awareness is critical. Thank you for timely reminders.
Thank you.
For me, it’s in the past as well. But some people close to me are still fighting this.
It’s a hard battle and they certainly can use all the help they can get.
Lots of love ❤
🙂 right on
Thanks Richardo!

Patty, just powerful. For those who do not fight depression, they have not the understanding. I am one of the lucky ones who survived a suicide attempt when I was young. God bless you for what you are doing here, my Sister! God bless you! Love, Amy
Thank you Amy.
I am so glad that you survived my dear friend.
Many blessings, light and love to you! ❤
Bless you, Patty. I was a very troubled teen and young adult. I was given “new life” after I experienced my NDE in 1984. I came back “different”. Blessings to you, my friend. Much Love, Amy
I understand my friend. As you know, my life wasn’t exactly a walk in the park either when I was a teen.
We are warriors. Stay strong!
Love & Hugz ❤

Of course I commemorate the day, growing up with a bipolar mother and then getting the same diagnosis in my 20’s, after having feeling depressed a long time. Today my mother has passed on, but I,m still hanging in there thanks to a cocktail of meds. Thank YOU for making it a day to remember!!
Hugs & love
Carina
I am so sorry for your loss Carina.
Sending you lots of love and strength.
Bipolar is a hard diagnosis, but at the same time at least you know where your feelings and struggles come from.
I don’t know much about this, but I would like to pay some attention to it on my blog to raise some more awareness and understanding. Maybe you would want to write a guest blog about it? If you want to, please send me a email: uppiecat@msn.com.
Of course I completely understand if you don’t want to.
Love & Hugz ❤
I’ll definitely take it under consideration if you don’t mind waiting some time? Thanks for offering me this opportunity to explain about my disease. Bipolar disorder can manifest itself in several different stages. I’ll get back to you and my e-mail is gryphon9@live.se
Love & hugz, Carina
Thank you so much.
Of course, take all the time you need. If you have any questions or just want to talk, you can email me.
Lots of love ❤
