Don't Take Suicide As A Joke

Rant #2

I don't know where to start with this one, so it'll go where it goes.

I'm a victim of self-harm, am I happy about it? Not at all, but sometimes when you're in a bad state of mind, you turn to something to take away the pain for a while. Whether that be cutting, burning, smoking, drinking, etc.
Sadly, I've cut, burned, smoked, and drank before and I'm sure there's more types of self-harm, but those are the 4 main ones.

Anyways, if you know about someone's self-harming and don't speak up and tell them to get help or try to help them get the help they need, do it or if they won't let you, you need to take things into your own hands and tell either your school's counselling or that person's parent or guardian.

Self-harming isn't something anyone should be happy about and it should never be an option for anyone. Although, it is, sadly. It should have never been.

I know I probably sound hypocritcal being's my past choices, but I'm being completely honest.

I'd hate to find out one of my friend's were self-harming or ever thought about suicide, but living in today's world and society, I don't think we can prevent it.

Don't call someone who self-harms emo and do not make fun of them. Self-harm is a serious disorder and should be taken more serious than your jokes.

Joking about something like that IS NOT FUNNY. I wonder when people will understand that making fun of someone for something they're going through isn't funny. You're not funny or cool for calling a self-harmer emo. You're not a good person for telling them they should cut deeper, that their a waste of space, or by calling them worthless, useless, ect.

Honestly, I hope people start getting what they deserve for all the horrible things they've ever said to someone. I'm not going to lie, I did at one point say things like "I'm killing myself" or "cutting myself" with out intentionally meaning it. Am I proud of that? Hell no because now I know what it's like to actually want to kill myself and what it feels like to cut or self-harm in anyway.

I regret saying those kinds of things, I really do. I wish someone would've cussed me oht for it, I would deserve it.

Anyways, I'm trying to keep these as short as I can with getting my point across, so I hope this got my point across because I'm ending it here.
