When I was 15 my brother found my suicide note. He came to me crying and he said " do you know what will happen to us if you kys? I will never go to college, get a good job, or get married because I will probably just stay home and be with our sad parents, dad will probably die young and heartbroken, mom will never forgive herself, thinking she was the reason, and our dog will always look for you" Him saying that to me made me realize how selfish I was being. People love me and their lives would be forever changed for the worse if I had done it. I never thought about suicide again.

So next time you're thinking "me killing my self will be better for everyone", You couldn't be more wrong and it's actually the opposite. You're burning down the village as you walk away.
