Challenge #5: A time you thought about ending your own life.
I have never seriously considered ending my own life before. I have had some low points before, however, where I'm just sad for no good reason. It could have just been because I felt alone, I felt I annoyed everyone, or I felt nobody liked me. I believe everyone goes through these points in their life. I know I'd get some pretty big controversy on this, but I don't believe in depression. I feel that there is no reason for it. If you want to not be sad anymore, get out there and do something about it then. It's your life, you can make with it what you will. When I said I have never seriously considered ending my own life, I meant that I have never had the razor blade in my hand, or had the rope in my hand and almost done it. But in my lowest points, I have thought about what I would have probably done. One of my problems with comitting suicide was what if you messed up? You'd either be in extreme pain until someone could help you, badly mess yourself up, or you could get in serious trouble. People who attempt suicide and fail - that is attempted murder. And I have heard of people going to jail for attempting to kill themselves. Attempting to end your own life, that's not cool. And I really wish the people who have done it before would have reached out to someone and got some help. It makes me really sad to think about this subject.
