In hopes of stopping this cruel crime, I must write this to the people who ignore their daughter's, best friend's, sister's, brother's- the ones who ignore the people whom they claim they "love"- the one's who are the poison-who instantly kill the ones who need a fresh drink of water, another gasp for air.
You are toxic, please exit their life as soon as possible or change your ways and stop being so inconsiderate to the cries for help. Anxiety, depression-mental illnesses is not a cry for attention. They are cries for help, for someone to tell them they love them or someone to just show they care for one minute. I promise you, it wont take that much time out of your day to just reply back to them, to just text them and see how they are doing. (For God's sake you're on your phone anyway).
I don't have it bad, I really don't. I'm not writing for myself. I am writing for the ones who have that knot ready to go, the ones who have the handful of pills, the ones who tell themselves they don't need to be here anymore and the ones who feel like no one cares about them. I want to be their voice, I want to create awareness. You are the medication that they need, not anti-depressants. Just, YOU.
Too many young lives are taken too fast, because they feel so alone. The worse place to feel alone is in a room full of people.
It's not easy, I understand, creating a new meaning of life to a person who feel as if it's not worth living. It may take more than a text, but I promise you, the time and effort you put into this human being will be less time and effort you spend wishing you did more. Wishing you responded to them when they were so, SO proud of themselves for feeling the slightest bit better. Wishing you would've understood why they didn't want to spend the night drinking till 3am, rather laying in their bed. Wishing you would've taken that stupid, drunken night to talk about how they're doing.
Just a few words of advice for the heartless people who choose ignorance over love and the hand of help. Stop shaming them for picking happiness over you. Stop shaming them for wanted to get better with people who give a shit. How dare you!
I promising you, they don't want social media attention. They just want yours, a loved one. Please show you care, please show that you're there...
Before it's too late..
Everyone deserves a chance at a happy, healthy life (physically and mentally). Please give them one chance, one hug, one kiss, just show them that you're there.
I beg you.
I am the voice of your loved one, and I need help.
(do you know how hard it is to admit that?)
