AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE:

So before you read this story there are some things you should know.

This is NOT a happy story.  There is no happy ending.  Deal with it.  Or if you're like my friend, then you'll love the sad ending.

This story is basically about a girl who commits suicide.  It's not really about how she hangs herself and the life is choked out of her, this story is more about the days before her death.  What her life is like and why she wants to die.  It will also include the preparations she makes for her death, and any loose ends she has to tie up.

I have rated this story PG-13, mainly for the language use.  Other than that, there's nothing really bad. 

Of course though, there's always the topic of suicide, which is a very serious and real issue.  It's not to be taken lightly.  I originally came up with and started writing this story because I wanted to show that it does exist and suicide does happen all the time, and people's words and actions are usually the cause of it.

Lucy, the girl, also does self-harm.  She cuts because she believes that it helps her get her emotions out and it makes her feel good.  And when people call her cutter, she thinks she has to be one.

There also is a bit of romance or "love" because, really, what girl doesn't have a crush on someone?

This is the first story that I've really deticated myself to completing, but it's also the shortest.  So I could really use some helpful criticism.  I want to become the best writer I can be.

If you're interested stick around... If not... Then, thanks for stopping by!

P.S. This story did used to be called "Nothing (Giving Up On Life)" but I've changed it to "Lost in Existence."  I like it better, and Lucy is basically lost, mentally, and can't find herself, so it works.

P.S.S. The picture to the side is the old, old, cover of the story :))
