there's so much to life

positive side of the internet

[reasons-to-not-end-it]

tw: suicidal thoughts, self harm, depression.

submit your reason to live. no matter how small you may think it is, if it's making you believe that you're worthy of life, it's a big reason enough.

• drop your reasons through "asks".

• i promise that the reasons will always be anonymous,

• and if i point out any grammatical error, i will correct it no worries.

• if you want to put a certain emoji instead of the anonymous tag, then put it along with your submission, please check under #emoji to see what have already been used.

• or if you want you name/tumblr url put in place of the anonymous tag, then pls mention that too.

• problematic asks will most probably be posted last (problematic = mentioning in a much later ask that you want your previously sent ask to be anonymous/non-anonymous, asks which will have poems, asks with lots of paragraph breaks)

• staying positive in the comments/reblogs section is much appreciated. don't throw hate, or you'll be blocked.

• please understand that a human is running this blog.

i lost a very important person two years back. here to make tumblr my happy place. some brave people are fighting against their demons, that thought alone, makes me want to be brave too and keep going.

thank you.

REASONS TO NOT END IT:

"Weird reason but I’m choosing not to die because I figured out I have anxiety. Not recently, I figured it out a bit ago maybe two years ago. And it indefinitely made my life better. Not the anxiety but the knowing. I wasn’t diagnosed since my family isn’t all too into therapy but to the feeling that would sit with me ever since I was ten I was able to put a name as I saw people discussing it. That weird uncomfortable sensation that would follow me. I now know it is real and wretched and horrible but it’s not a moral failure. (I’ve had a whole thing with morality probably also tied to anxiety but uh yeah) I am not a broken person. I feel a different feeling now one I can’t really name yet but maybe I will one day. Though it might seem like a strange thing to await I don’t want to die before knowing and then I think knowing would make me want to die even less."

I SWEAR I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP, I JUST COULDN'T FIGURE out which mail i had used, i had even mailed to tumblr support regarding this. i was so sooo tensed that i had accidentally deleted this account and forgotten about it or something, scary as hell.

REASONS TO NOT END IT:

"Because you never know when the progress you’ve made and the work you’ve put in to find happiness despite your hardships will help someone else. You never know when you’ll meet the younger, quieter, more scared version of yourself. And you’ll never know how much seeing the work you put in to move past your sadness will help them. How it could save them just knowing it’s never too late. I know you’ll never see this and I hope you never do. But thank you for showing me-not only that it was possible-but that the hard work to be better was worth it, and I deserved happiness too. Moving past suicidal ideation is like breaking down a brick wall with a hammer. But you can make it, one swing at a time."

REASONS TO NOT END IT:

"You could be somebody’s everything. You could write a book that a 13 year old reads then looks back on with so much joy and fondness for the rest of their life because they’re so happy you wrote it. You could smile at someone on the worst day of their life, helping them get through it. You could form a friendly connection with a cashier at your grocery store, letting them actually look forward to something at work every week. You could make so many people laugh because you are you.

Just by existing we’re positively impacting those around us, for you what is just being polite to a stranger in public could mean the world to that stranger.

the world is filled with so many people and so many different stories that follow those people.

So many people wish for their story to be known and seen and wish to see the stories of others.

Living is so hard, I know it is, but someone somewhere wants desperately to know your story because you brought them joy, or because you just seemed like a lovely person.

and you deserve to be able to see that person again and tell that story.

you deserve to be remembered not as a statistic but as an individual person, a person who is loved and loved so many people.

even if you don’t believe someone out there loves you, and if you can’t think of someone then I’ll be that person.

I love you. And you deserve that love."

"There is so much of me that isn’t my shame, there is so much of me that isn’t my painful mind. There is so much of me that isn’t dissapointed. There is so much of me that is miraculous ladybug. There is so much of me that is writing. There is so much of me that is laughing at a message my friend sent. There is so much of me that craves to paint even tho I’m bad with a paintbrush. There is so much of me that sings, a larger part than the one that says my voice is mediocre. And that part the one that raises its volume in the shower does not deserve to die."

"sometimes it rains. sometimes while it is still raining, lightning turns the sky purple, and then after the rain everything is quiet and a little grey and it smells the way the world always smells when the rain has stopped. sometimes this happens at the perfect time of day, when the sun is setting, and the sky is a thousand pastel colours behind the golden sun. sometimes, it turns out, is often enough."
