I think we all need to talk.
Maybe it's the weather in your neck of the woods. Maybe you had a crappy day. Maybe someone hurt you.
But suicide and self harm are not the answer.
I promise.
You all have such a bright future, so many things to look forward to. In just a few more years you'll probably graduate school and have more freedom and won't have to see anyone who has hurt them again.
You all can do it.
I know you can.
There are so many people out there who love you, or are capable of loving you. The world has a population of 7.4 billion. Even if 1,000 people still hate you, you all are sure to find at least one good person. There are so many good and accepting people out there, it's actually hard not to.
Make sure you have something to look forward to every day, anything from going home after a long series of tests to a concert. Don't starve yourself. Don't hurt yourself. You are not a worthless person. Someday, I trust that y'all will surround yourself with good people who will accept you. Anyone who is insulting you is going to regret it when you are more successful than them. Remember, popularity will not get you into colleges, or get you a job. But hard work and talent will.
You just have to keep on standing out and being yourself, because someday someone will regret not being like you.
Please, I urge and encourage you all to spread the word to a friend or group of people that needs it. Please repost this message or create a new chapter in your book. You could even simply tag a friend below (make sure they would feel comfortable with that). No one in this world needs to feel like suicide is the only solution to their problem.
Because suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
