“I haven’t lost “everything” like most of them describe. Then again you have to have something to lose in order to lose everything, so maybe my situation is much worse.”
“I wanna be happy, but for some reason I’m just incapable of being happy. I would rather be depressed cause at least while I’m depressed, I’m used to it. I’m used to feeling low about my situation and life. Happiness is what scares me.”
“I pray that God helps me find whatever it is I’m seeking to be happy. It’s just becoming too hard to live right now.”
“I think if I died today, people would mourn and week later, back to business. It depresses me to think my life has no significance in the world I live in.”
“Let me drown already. Let me forget him. Let this infatuation die in me. My heart is heavy, and I can't take much more.”
“So this was me laying my heart on the line cause at that point, I had nothing to lose.”

…Can't find the words that can even begin to sufficiently express my emotions & feelings…
This book resonated so deeply with me, it reduced me to tears that won't stop falling!
As a person who struggled with anxiety, depression & suicidal & self-harm tendencies, coping with mental illness impact of, on & for the rest of my life, I am grateful for bringing this story to life. It genuinely touched my heart & made me even more grateful to the people who chose to love me enough to stay & save me from me more than I was capable of or cared to for myself!!
Introducing & identifying the inescapable torture of debilitating pain so overwhelming that the desperation to avoid or evade it for even the briefest moment is perceived as an improvement, you're willing to physically destroy yourself is to recognize, remember & relate to the characters, storylines, darkness, self-deprecating, self-destruction that is everyday life for people dealing with mental health needs.
"ʼLife is misery with a few good moments in between. Cherish them as best you can, and don't waste those precious moments that you do have cause they are far and few in between.ʼ Lellow Cook.... Always remember...”
Excellent job putting words that relate the unexplainable & expresses the unfathomable to those who haven't been there themselves.
