It's sad how, we take suicide and depression as a minor joke... when in reality it's most definitely not... we have humans like myself and you, who decide that the easier way out is to murder their souls... your friend could tell you that sometimes they
"Feel like dying"
And we take it as a joke cause it's not something someone would think of doing right?
But that one person could be silently crying out for help. Trying to call you out to help them... but you don't listen cause your oblivious, you allow them take the knife other option
Imagine finding out that you could've helped them... you could've stopped them from losing themselves entirely,but then again if they picked up the other option, they already had the thought of death in their heads
It meant they were already lost... waiting for someone to at least notice, to think that it might even be too late is haunting
All they needed was listening ear really but you weren't there to help
At least say "stop" no one did so they took that as a go ahead sign took that as their form of no one cares
cause no one does
cause if even a soul did
there wouldn't be a poster with their faces and a suicide hotline on it.
But then here we are
living the lie that everyone's alright
everyone's fine
but nobody is
nobody's fine
nobody
Suicide, suicide is the act of taking your own life
Suicide is a serious problem in the world at large and even worse in Africa because you know African parents now
When you say you have a problem they'll think your exaggerating what is that their saying again
"Making a mountain out of an ant hill" right? I can't even remember I just know that they rarely care about what we see as problems, I mean at our age our problems should involve a hard cover.
Another thing though is that having problems our age like adolescent age is crap cause at our age according to my mother and lots of parents out ther our only problem should be concerning our studies
But really, the truth is that we have issues right and parents when we want to talk to you about them try and listen, like I said sometimes listening is enough for them it's enough for them to at least hold on a bit yeah?
Cause honestly adolescent age is mad like Blood of God it is hard and so crazy stressful, it's like you have to be social and smart and fine there has to be a balance even though it doesn't even work out sometimes you could be all of the above yet annoying as hell and then people won't like you crossing out the social aspect of your adolescent life, "you just can't have all three" a friend of mine always says
And you will most definitely at least be teased for one or should I say bullied, bullying another thing our parents don't take seriously sighs that's another topic for another day though
My own mother lwill even tell me to take paracetamol and sleep and it's painful that their oblivious to their own offspring's pain (not that I'm being bullied though) but when I come to her with a social problem
"Have you done your assignments?" or "Go and take paracetamol" or occasionally "It is well" funny enough the latter sometimes helps but you need someone that cares, you need someone that'll understand yeah? I know I do.
So today text that friend you have refused to text first since (unless they left you on read, don't take that nonsense), joking you could text them if you want to, tell your best friend you love him or her, they just might want to hear that, Ask what's wrong when you know obviously something's wrong, don't put off talking about something cause the topic makes you uncomfortable talk about it let it out. And you too as a person vent today, scream and shout when you feel don't bottle it up, Express yourself, be happy today.
