Triggering (Suicide) - One year!

[EyesShiningCame]

It's been one year today since I attempted suicide for the first time... Amazing, since at the time I was convinced I wouldn't live until the summer. But ever since then it's always been another week, another month... And wow, look at this. I still have scars on my wrists, and it wasn't the last time, but I'm just incredibly amazed and thankful that I've made it this far. I still have a long way to go, but, wow, I've come a long way.

Just tell yourself to hang on another day, and then one more... Eventually, one will be better.

I know what you mean by hanging in there another day.
Congratulations for making it to a year, I know how hard that was for you, because it's not easy to make it a year.

Congrats on making it to now!
It's nice to hear something positive like this.
When i was a teenager i never thought i would live past 21, it was like the magic age i thought i'd never get to, now i'm nearly 23 so it's definately possible it's just hard to see the future when you feel that bad.
Thank you for posting this.
