There are so many horrible and genuinely scary monsters among us. They don’t hide in our closets or under our beds. They steal lives from us without any remorse. They go by the names of mental illness, cancer, and numerous other names that strike fear in the hearts of many.

Christians. Please remember that when you’re struggling with situational depression and feeling suicidal by extension, Jesus is a great support system. Jesus was beaten down, crucified, and is still standing. You could do the same.

Prolonged severe depression. It doesn’t care about who you are or what you have. The torment will exhaust you. It’ll leave you feeling hopeless. It’ll steal who you are. It will install a pain in your brain like a virus that will destroy you. It’ll kill you by suicide and feel no remorse.

Medical copays are absolutely ridiculous. They know you need these treatments/medications to manage whatever it is that you’re going through and they decide to charge you absurd amounts to make it happen. They’re hoping the stress kills you or you end up living in the streets because you’re broke.

With clinical depression, your head can become your prison. Your freedom is restricted. The other prisoners torture and torment you. They don’t want your commissary. They don’t want to frighten you. They want your soul. They want to end your sentence with the death penalty by suicide.

Suicide due to clinical depression isn’t a simple solution to a problem. It’s the dreaded end stage of a misunderstood and mishandled illness. Those who are supposed to care the most crucify those who struggle and then are bewildered as to why, the victims didn’t come forward for help beforehand.

Mental illness shouldn’t be like Fight Club. It should be discussed openly, and not kept a secret. It shouldn’t be a one-on-one fight. If you need help, you should be able to get it without any complications or repercussions.

Depression can cause you to feel depressed. Exhausted with living. Physically and mentally sick. As if your life has faltered. A horrendous pain that won’t subside with aspirin or any other physical means. That suicide is the only way to find the peace you so desperately crave.

Severe depression if left untreated or improperly treated leads to a struggle between peace & pain. That struggle, in time, becomes suffering, & then that, sadly, leads to suicide. It’s a slow torturous process. It’s not a quick decision made w/a sound mind to end one’s life.

There are no winners with suicide due to depression. Everyone loses. It’s pain and devastation shared by everyone involved. We all know that. Why are we not fighting harder to improve the situation and save lives? It’s almost as if we truly are gluttons for punishment.

Do you know how horrible someone would have to feel to believe that death is a better alternative to life? How broken their hearts must be to contemplate suicide? How tormented their souls must be to attempt, or sadly, even follow through with suicide?

I had a little bit of a scare earlier today. I don't know what happened, but all of a sudden, my chest felt like I got punched in the center of it. It was extremely painful and lasted for a few seconds. As a result, I've been relaxing most of the day. Thankfully, nothing more came of it.

Those struggling w/depression aren’t weak. Their soul is heavy w/despair, & they find the strength to put a smile on their face. Their eyes are close to breaking like a damaged levee, & they still hold back the tears. Their heart is on the edge, & they still maintain their balance.

Addiction due to depression/trauma could be a way of dying by suicide slowly. Don’t give up on those who are struggling. I know it’s not always easy and can be frustrating, but it’s worth the fight. They are not trying to destroy your life. They are trying to destroy theirs.

Those who are struggling with depression feel as if they’re asking for help at the top of their lungs. However, sadly, because of how society treats people in those situations, they put on an award-winning performance, proving that all is well. It’s a heartbreaking performance.

The worst part of owning a dog isn't the walks at inconvenient times, the added care expenses, or cleaning up their poop. The worst part is when they leave us. They are taken way too soon. I know it could be years, but once they're gone, it isn't long enough.

When life brings you to your knees, try praying when you’re down there. You’d be surprised by the blessings you could receive. How quickly a battered-down position can become a position of power.

Before dying by suicide, say goodbye to your loved ones face-to-face. You'd be surprised how many will grab you and not let go. You'd be amazed by all the support and pure compassion you receive. Don't discount your loved ones. They care and need you more than you realize.

Suicide due to depression is the absence of hope. Hope that the pain will subside. Hope that you aren’t all alone. Hope that there are better days ahead. As long as there is life, there is always hope. With death, all hope is truly lost. Please don’t ever give up hope on yourself.

Living with suicidal ideation as a result of clinical depression and other similar mental illnesses is a fate much worse than death itself. That’s why many who struggle believe that death is the cure for the tremendous pain that’s terrorizing their mind. They deserve better.

There is no age restriction for suicide. Anyone, unfortunately, can be a victim. Believing that your loved ones are safe because of a certain characteristic could lead to heartbreak and regret. Check on their mental health. No matter who they are.

Sometimes, the most dangerous place to be when you’re not feeling well mentally is in your own head. Do what your parents told you to do when you were growing up: “Go out and play”. Find something that makes you happy. It will help you take your mind off things.

People who were suicidal due to mental illness never tried to kill themselves. They tried to kill the pain they thought would never go away. They were casualties of a war fought in their head. Unless you’ve been on the battlefield, you wouldn’t understand.

Some, sadly, hear “unwell mind” and automatically assume it means crazy. What’s actually crazy, are those who believe that the mind is impervious to illness. Some believe it means you’re dangerous. Some believe it’s simply “negative thinking”. Some really need to smarten up.

Suicide due to clinical depression isn’t about “free will”. It’s not a choice made with a sound mind because life is too tough. There’s an internal influence that’s pulling the strings. An unwell brain is the puppeteer that makes the body act by messing with its emotions/feelings.

The brain can be unwell. It can alter your mood. It can make you feel things that aren’t real. It can kill you. The mind is the control center and when it malfunctions, it can be dangerous. That’s what most victims of suicide due to clinical depression, sadly, endure.

Sometimes your excitement for anything related to living is hindered. The only thing you want to do is lie in bed. Not necessarily to sleep, but to not move or face the outside world. It’s about having a nightmare when you’re wide awake. Depression is the dominant force.
