Sometimes it’s hard to admit… that we need other people. Sometimes depression & suicidal thoughts contain a component of upset & anger towards the world & the people in it. But the truth is, nothing can really substitute for human contact - we do need people. The truth is, just talking to someone, explaining, sharing, venting, being listened to, can often give us a temporary reprieve. Talking to someone can temporarily change your perspective - Human contact changes the brain chemistry & opens that emotion “pod” of pent up emotions for temporary relief - and it may not be what they say, but just the exchange of emotions like empathy, compassion, & concern. Will they cure us - no. Will they take the pain away ? Maybe ease it for a little while. Even if you know you may be upset or suicidal again soon, just give it a try. Even though non-depressive humans won’t really know exactly how you feel — Let them try to help the best they can. Talk to them, let them listen. Most of them are not even getting paid. The only reason they are there is for you.
REACH OUT FOR YOURSELF OR A LOVED ONE. No matter what problems you are struggling with, hurting yourself isn’t the answer. Call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) to talk to a counselor at a Lifeline crisis center near you.

I had a close friend today die from suicide. It consumed his mind and body. It’s like a cancer that just eats at you...
