Incredibly powerful stories, revealing in the way the writers take the reader into their heads and reveal their thinking.
As a young person, I worked as a Nurse and never understood my patients as much as I did after reading this post. Many people are not able to empathize with the sufferer but these words do help to relate the hopelessness and understand the thought patterns that lead to the most tragic act.
I think we can better understand the nature of suicide from survivors like this.
It is so important for us all to check in with others about how they are doing. A txt or phone call could mean everything.

It is so incredibly sad that we get so caught up in life, that we forget to reach out to others. Thank you so much for sharing this!

I agree Aletta. Someone made the comment that the photos are taken out of context, but it is still useful to remind ourselves to have some time away from technology to interact fully and completely with people!
