Please. I need help. How do you deal with your mental health when it’s in a really low point? Like suicide point?
For starters, I remind myself that I’ve been at a point that low before and, eventually, it got better. Eventually I climbed out of the hole. Eventually I got myself out of the low point.
I also remind myself of all the people who would miss me - of all the people who would be hurt if I killed myself. My friends, my family - all of them. For me, the one who hits the hardest for me is my cat. I know that might sound dumb to some people - but she’s imprinted on me. I make her whole world go round. She spends every day following me around. She snuggles me every chance she gets. She waits for me at the back door when I come home every day. She would be completely lost without me. She needs me. And anytime I feel low enough to think about suicide I remind myself of her and I remember that she needs me more than I want to hurt myself.
I also reach out for help. For me, that means reaching out to my therapist. I know not everyone has a therapist - so make it whoever helps you when you’re feeling low.
She helps me work through what I’m feeling. She makes me check in every night to let her know I’m safe.
I go through all the reasons I’m thankful that I’m alive. All the small victories that I’ve won over the last week or month or year. I keep a list of these things for that specific purpose. Because when I’m feeling that low it’s not always easy to remember the good - so I write them down every day so that I can look on them when I need them.
I also, if it’s really bad, go to a hospital program. Some people see that as giving up but I see that as doing what I need to do to take care of myself.
Please think about all the people who would miss you. About the things you would miss. I’d miss cupcake batter. And my kitten. And reading good books on rainy afternoons. And Christmas festivities with my family. And traveling with my two best friends. And really good glasses of wine.
It doesn’t matter if other people think they’re dumb reasons to live - whatever makes you happy, whatever you look forward to is worth living for.
I’m here. Please reach out.
Here are the crisis hotlines to call, as well. There’s nothing wrong with reaching out for help - it’s one of the bravest things you can do. And you can do it.

Beautiful advice. Definitely worth a reblog.
BOOST.
I’ve been getting the courage to say this.
As someone that has been there, has taken the whole bottle of pills, has held the blade to my vein and has stood on that ledge, it’s not worth it. The last time… I had to look in my loved ones face as I came to after being rushed to the hospital. I saw that pain in their eyes and finally saw what I was doing to them.
I struggle daily to keep my head above water and guess what? There are days that I fail, days that I still fall back into the dark place where the only thing I can think of is suicide. I’m diagnosed manic depressive with an anxiety disorder on top. I struggle.
It will always be a fight, even when everything is going your way.. that demon will still be on your back whispering in your ear.
But to anyone suffering with suicidal thoughts or tendencies remember a few things.
1. You are not alone. I’m not talking about the therapists, doctors, nurses or any professional. I’m talking about the other people that are around you, the ones that know exactly what you are going through, that can help.
2. Things will get better, it may take time, a lot of time, but things will always get easier. Especially if you reach out for help.
3. You are loved and needed. We all have those feelings that we aren’t loved or feel that things would be better off without us. That’s wrong. You’re family and friends need you. You have a purpose in this life, we all do.
I’m very aware constantly of who I am, the problems I have, but there are things you can do to help.
1. Reach out for help (like you did here) call your local hospital, they will give you a thousand resources.
2. Utilize the suicide hotline, they do help and again give resources that can help.
3. Take care of yourself, drink water and eat regularly, it sounds silly, but it does help with mood swings.
4. Shower and get dressed each day, the worst thing we can do for ourselves is stay in bed. It just makes things worse. Usually getting up and getting dressed helps pull me slightly out of my rough spot. (I’m not saying this is a fix all, but it does help)
Always know you are not alone. Always know that you can come to me, if no one else is available. (This goes for any of my followers) I am a safe place, I don’t judge and I don’t get angry. I have been there. I have had to reach out to strangers, sometimes it’s easier to talk to strangers than it is to talk to your family.
Please, please, please don’t take your life.
Please look ahead at the horizon and know that the sun will rise.
