letters to you。「yoonmin」{COMPLETED} (#wattys2018)

my opinion。

I'm going to go on a rant here (Trigger Warning).
This is just my opinion, you can agree or disagree. That's fine. But let me just start off by saying I don't agree with suicide. Its absolutely heartbreaking, but to say "Suicide is dumb," just irks me. And that's what I'm ranting about. A few people have been letting me know, "Suicide is dumb," "It's stupid." In no way do I think its okay or justifying it. But no suicide is dumb. Its heart wrenching. It's hard to cope with when it happens. And the people saying it's dumb, I'm sorry you havent gone through enough pain, suffering, and hardships in your life to think about or come close to that point. Some people just honestly feel like they have no other option. Maybe instead of dissing people, why dont you help them? They're so lost and sometimes they feel like there's nothing left of them. Suicide ISNT okay. But take time to try and help people, give advice, do EVERYTHING you possibly can. Unfortunately, it won't always work. Sometimes words and actions won't help. Sometimes people are so utterly depressed that nothing can fix them. People DO have mental illnesses and IT IS a thing. But don't be so quick to talk. Yes, maybe you go through things twice as bad or things that you think is worse. But people handle situations differently.
Suicide is not stupid. Its an action people take when they feel like they're nothing but walking flesh. When they feel empty and miserable.
But i dont think its okay or agree with it. I wouldnt tell my friends to do it if they were feeling this way or coax them into it.
There's more I want to add but I'm not sure how to put it into one long post.
This leads me to my final point: if you are feeling this way, feeling suicidal, worthless, any of that, just know that I'm here for you. I don't care who you are. If I dont know you. Or if we burned our bridges. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Even in your darkest times, I am here. I will listen. I will be there for you. And my God, I'll do everything I can to make you feel better. I won't give up on you. If you need me, don't be afraid to speak up. I won't judge you.
