"They say suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Well, the problem of being human isn't really so temporary and sometimes a permanent solution seems like the best possible way out." -Tweak by Nic Sheff
This is one of my all time favorite quotes from the book Tweak, about a boy who suffers with a meth addiction. we've all felt this way at one time or another.. usually when it's late at night, and we're stuck with our thoughts in the darkness of our rooms. You sit there and think about everything you've done wrong-- or everything you should have done right. Every choice you made is now being reevaluated in the big picture. Was it the right choice? Could there have been a different outcome had you chosen another path to take? The problems we think of in our head don't seem to be so temporary.. which is why we seek a permanent way out of this dark and challenging abyss we call life. the monsters in our heads fight with us every night. taunting us with the idea of suicide.. the idea that all the pain can end in a single instant. but what we don't think about are the consequences.. sure, you'd be dead. gone and forgotten. but what about all of the people that actually loved and cared about you? the ones you overlooked while deciding to take your own life. they are now in pain. all you have done was project your feelings of despair onto them, without even giving it a second thought. -V.C.

well this would be my first ever post on here. the purpose of this blog would be to show people that there is always light at the end of the tunnel. there might not always be an easy way out, but there is a way out.. and its not suicide. I know more than anyone else that that always feels like the answer, and believe me when I say that we all have those nights where we sit and contemplate taking our own lives. there's always someone who cares about you. even if you don't realize it, i guarantee you that someone DOES care. so don't you ever give up.
