I kept reaching new lows, feeling worse every new day. I’m always making a plan to take my life. I think about suicide every day. There is simply too much pain in my life right now to see another way out.

I know what it feels to be hopeless. I’ve had my fair share of ups and downs. I’ve had my moments of despair. How to reduce your suicidal thoughts is by changing your mindset about your situation. Some decide to give up and to kill themselves, and others like me choose to live no matter what to set an example, to leave a positive legacy for their environment.
The way you are dealing with your own personal problems has an impact not only for your life but for the world around you. People observe you, they analyze and study how you react to failures. The way you’re going to live your life depends on the habits you have formed and the attitudes you have. Above all, you must be resilient.
My advice to you would be to open up your world, like traveling or seeing nature. Experience something new, you may just find something amazing or interesting, something may just change your life. Go out and look at the green pastures and rocky mountains and beautiful natural lakes. Look at how animals live and how much they love living. Do something big. Change your environment. Change your perspective.
Sometimes I feel like there’s no purpose but then there are times I feel like there’s not enough time to enjoy the beauty of this world and how little time we really have. I wanna know where we’ll go from here, where the future will be, will we discover something big like music again? Will there be new species like Humans again? I know I’m going kinda far but I want to have a persistent consciousness. I don’t just want it all to end here, in this era. Doesn’t that make you sad?
Think about how beautiful it is that you are the only one that knows your recording of this universe through your eyes and it is unlike anyone else’s, it may be similar but it’s not yours. You were sent here to record your own perspective of this universe and you alone. None of us can see or feel what you can. In that respect, you are truly unique and if you end yourself, you will give up these rights. You will end your purpose that you were sent here for and that will be sad for everyone. If anyone is watching us and seeing what we’re seeing then you’re denying them that experience. You could be an influence on someone’s life someday, and you may be now. You don’t know that or maybe you do.
Go to a new place, a new culture, a new language, new people. Do everything you can to save yourself. I’m not going to tell you to not do it, because that’s not good enough. I want you to do something about it. Not just “not do it”. Do something about it. Don’t sit around.
