#cuttingisnotajoke

I was in class today and a couple of the guys started joking about cutting. My friend and I both said it wasn't funny and one of them said it is. I raised my voice and said that it really isn't funny and it shouldn't be. One of my best friends has cut and when he said that it made me really angry and sad. People, cutting is not a joke. It's not funny and it should never be taken light-heartedly.

We were having dinner and one of my brothers made a joke about cutting. I got really made at him and told him it wasn't funny to joke about something so serious. My other brother replied saying that people who cut or commit suicide show just suck it up and take it (it begins everything that life throws at them).  

I couldn't believe how stupid either of them could be. Cutting or ending your own life is NOTHING to joke about. 

People who contemplate the thought of taking their own life but don't are, in my opinion, one of the bravest people ever. To have felt whatever they had to feel to even think that death would be a better way to go then to live, but then don't and push through and be strong through every trial and tribulation is one of the bravest things I can think off. The amount of strength, courage, determination and bravery that a person would need if amazing. 

And for the people who might read this and think, oh well I'm not that strong, or brave . I bloody bet u are, u just dont think so. 

Guess what, I think you are. You don't know me, or you might, but I believe you can get better and push through everything. I don't know if it'll hep, but u can rant to me all you like. I won't mind, to be honest I would love it. it would make be feel less lonely.
