Be sure to think it over a million times before taking your life - it's grossly over-rated.
It's nothing like you might expect.
As you’re going out, and you’re life is slipping away, you’ll feel a horrible blackness that’s impossible to describe, that will make the distress you’ve felt seem like a sunny day in the park.
Five seconds before you’re all gone is when you realize what you’re about to give up, that no longer will you feel the sun shining on your face, or the breeze moving your hair. Five seconds before you’re gone, you realize that you’re new home is a tiny little box, hideously dark, terribly cold, buried six-feet under the ground, and there’s nothing you can do to turn back. Look in the mirror and imagine your face rotting off to the bone. Any damage you think you've done to yourself can't even come close to this.
While you’re alive, there’s the potential to recover, and even go beyond anything you thought possible. Anyone that tells you death is peaceful is either lying, has never seen it, or is so overcome with the horror of it, the only way they can go on is to deny it. If you kill yourself, you’ll be so, so sorry for doing so! All your other mistakes will pale in comparison.
Here's a better idea - turn this around!
As long as you're alive, it's not too late. Others have been through worse and come through it, and made a terrific life in spite of it; so can you.
