Like Most Of Us, I Grew Up In A Very Dysfunctional Family. Both My Parents Died In My Early 40’s And I Absolutely Don’t Feel Any Grief From Either Of Their Deaths.
what I Do Feel Grief Is From The Trauma I Had To Survive As A Child From Absentee Parents That Provided Barely Any Love Or Support. I Also Feel Grief For The Mental Health Issues That Developed In My Childhood That I Carry Into Today.
you Don’t Have To Love Your Family If You Don’t Want To. They Should Be Accountable And Not Be Given Grace Just Because They Are Blood. Don’t Feel Bad If You Walk Away From A Family Relationship To Preserve Your Mental Health.
may Is National Mental Health Month, So Be Kind To Your Mind And Don’t Take Any Bullshit From Anyone. - @therealjoirizarry

That's why I love the internet. You can ask the stupidest or most inappropriate questions and it's more than likely that : 1- someone has already asked the same question or 2- someone will gladly give you an answer. At the same time there will always be that someone who will bash you for anything you might say or do (too ugly, too pretty, too fat, too skinny, etc).

To find out more about the internet’s beloved project A Safe Place Inside your Head, which currently has 773k followers on Instagram, we reached out to the creators behind it. We spoke with Tanner Hamilton, the CEO at A Safe Place Inside Your Head, who said that he and his mom Joanne “created this non profit in honor of my brother who passed away from suicide.”

Hamilton added that “We wanted to raise awareness around his death and for his memory to live on through helping others.” He is the original founder of the non-profit and brought Joanne into the project later on.

I'm suicide survivor. I took an entire month's sleeping tablets. I WhatsApped my sister to say goodbye. After that I remember only that my year old cat was sitting on my chest, purring. I believe that she, more than doctors and therapists, saved my life. I am in a good place now, coping with very good anti-deppression and bi-polar meds. My cat Iris sleeps every night next to to my head,

The thing is generally people who attempt/commit suicide believe they are doing it to protect others from us hurting them or being a burden. We believe the world is better off without us. So in a sense our depression makes us think we are selfish for living.

Can report that when I was in the depths of the worst depression I've ever suffered, I thought my existence was so worthless that no-one would miss me anyway. I never actually considered suicide, but I didn't think it would be much of a big deal if I died. I think it's called passive suicidal ideation or something like that.

The thing I hate most in this world is when entitled young kids, or reqlly anyone at all, says things like "I would kill myself if such and such happened". "I would kill myself if you don't let me do such and such." No, you wouldn't. Because it takes so much suffering, so much hurt, to consider that. Not because Mummy got you an iPhone 12 instead of a 13. Whenever I see or hear anyone saying things like that, it just takes me back to a 16 year old girl, crying alone in her room at 3 in the morning because her suffering was too much to bear, trying to hide her pain from everyone around her because she knew that it would hurt them. It brings to mind how I had to maintain this facade, this image of being happy because I knew my mother would blame herself. I remember going to bed every night, wishing to not wake up the next day, but knowing that it would just make it worse for everyone else. I remember a time when I couldn't look at the kitchen knives without mapping out places in a human body that were most vulnerable. You do not understand suffering if what you think is the worst thing in the world is that you got something slightly different than what you wanted.

I agree with you on this suicide is not something you say you'll do if you don't get your way, people who are suicidal feel the only way to relieve the pain, the only way to let go of their problems is to take their own life i had been in those shoes, and i ended up in an inpatient unit for a week and afterwards i decided to take some day treatment originally because i was told that i would be there for only a few weeks and to skip a week long trip to camp Oakley in Utah, but i am glad those were in my head when i decided to take day treatment because i had TONS of support and i was there for 3 months but i started to gain skills for when i fell down. Suicide can be caused by thousands of things and one of my sisters old friends back at the east coast had Actually committed suicide and we have no idea why i also had a nightmare about my sister committing suicide once and i decided to talk to her about it. suicide is an extremely heavy topic that can shake up even the brightest.

I think many people still see depression as some sort of "emo" phase and not a serious condition. Being there but not actually being present. Wanting and waiting for the day to end so you can try to find some solace in sleep. Smiling with others but feeling no joy, only dread. It truly is unbearable.

as someone who thought more than once to end my own life, i think there are cowardly/bad ways to end it. Like jumping in front of a train/lieing on the tracks. it's quite easy, just one step, just lie down. but it is horrible for the train driver and bystander (i once witnessed a man who made the last step.) but suicide as act itself is not selfish!

I can't even comprehend the idea of suicide. It's such an alien concept to me, I can't even begin to understand it. I'm the complete opposite end of the scale. My sociopathic tendencies lead me to believe that the world would be much worse off without me. I've never seen suicide as something selfish or cowardly, in my mind it must take great courage to do something like that. But I do see it as a waste, you never know what someone will become or the impact they have one other peoples lives. If they are unable to see how much (even if it's just one person) they are needed, perhaps we should make it our duty to show it more.

When I took a load of sleeping pills, I did so, confident that I was doing everybody that knew me a favour. I saw their suffering every time I was with them, as they constantly worried about my wellbeing, the pain etched on their concerned faces. And I was the cause of it. I loved them dearly and sought a solution, to ease their burden. As the months turned into years, the depression tightened it's grip and an idea was born. I could take away their burden and no longer have to feel this way. It was the ultimate act of twisted altruism. I died on the way to hospital but they managed to bring me back. There have been days when I have felt grateful to those medics, and there are days when I wish they had failed, that I had stayed dead. Maybe that is selfish? But here I am, writing a new chapter in life, trying to get better. I don't know how long my story will be. All I know for sure, is that there will be an end at some point. I just hope it's a natural one. x

I suffer severe depression, and consider myself extremely fortunate to have fathered children. They are quite literally the only reason I don't self-terminate. Something inside me fervently believes that parents don't have the right to suicide (I'm not stating that as a fact, it's just my opinion, my belief, and isn't a judgment). Some days it's incredibly difficult to keep going, but I do, because I would never put my kids through that. But I totally understand and relate to anyone who feels they have no other option but to take that step. If you've never felt like committing suicide, be thankful, and try not to judge those who do.

Yup, suicides happens to you, it appears as the only solution left because our brain is a problem solving machine. And when you are deep in the dark, the only solution it can see to end suffering is to end it all. You can even feel glee thinking about it because you think you have a way to finally be free.

there is no one reason for suicide, and there is no logic that applies to all the cases...some people calmly decide to end it, and meticulously plan it. others, have a small window when they loose control and just get swept away...for some people they see their dead as stop ruining other peoples lives. others will use suicide as revenge tool to hurt those around. but mostly, is just a desperate act to stop the awful pain inside, like a tunnel vision were everything else disappear, and is just you and the pain...but is not about being selfish or selfless, is about the human brain no able to cope with its self.

When my friend committed suicide, my first thought wasn't to judge him, it was "I wish I had been able to see the amount of pain he must have been in. I wish I could have helped him in some way." Anyone who rushes to judge that kind of pain, doesn't really care.

tw self harm, suicide. --- I think this is definitely interesting as I have gone through a period of suicidal thoughts, and the main reason I hung on was because I thought that suicide would be selfish and that would only give myself more reason to hate myself, so I resorted to self harm. I do not disagree with this point, and knowing people who have taken their own life they were very brave people.

Your comment provoked some deep thought Kimberly… when I was 4 1/2 I found my fathers body in his bed, and at 46 I can look back and say it’s certainly affected the course of my life. In some ways that were painful and other ways with equanimity, understanding, forgiveness, even gratitude.. and there’s more to experience I’m sure. There’s a part of me that feels quite strongly that my well being is not permanently damaged by his suicide, no matter how broken I sometimes feel (which I wouldn’t pin entirely on that one act, my life same as many has been rife with challenges) I also deeply believe that we are spiritual beings having a human experience. We have these meat suits with all their senses, all their feelings, their capacity for pleasure and pain for a relatively short time, I choose to embrace whatever experiences Life offers me as best as I can. The more I’ve grieved the more capacity I find for joy, even bliss and it’s all beautiful, sacred.

I think it's that the person does not want to die per se... But they want the pain/hurt to end. And they don't see another way to end the pain, is to end their live. Which saddens me deeply... I honestly think ppl want to live, but the pain/hurt is making it impossible. Sorry if I offend anyone by this thinking.

I've suffered from crippling depression and anxiety my whole life. I've been suicidal since I was a teen. Most don't know this about me because I'm really good at hiding it. People think I'm bubbly and fun all the time. It's exhausting. I'm trying to get into a depression study now. This might be my last hope. I don't think my committing suicide is cowardly, it's more like falling asleep after a ridiculously long day.

When I was in middle school, a boy committed suicide in the school bathroom. The first thing my dad said when we learned about it was, “That was very selfish of him.” I remember crying because how can someone’s brain work like that? How can you say something like that when a CHILD has died? It’s disgusting.

Pills generally don't kill you. Some may damage your organs, some just cause the embarrassment of waking up and having medical people all over you, perpetuating the myth. Google hides info, and it doesn't help, if you knew you wouldn't succeed and just mess yourself up, would you? I think not.

I’d think it depends upon which pills, some being more toxic than others (not to mention the condition of the body ingesting them)? Pills were what took my father, I don’t know what he was prescribed but it was to treat what they called manic depression at the time (now known as bi-polar).

Partial Quote: People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching. ― David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas

It can also be an end-of-life plan. As I approach 60 I am planning to someday take my own life when life isn't worth living anymore. I don't want to be dependent on others when I can't get my own food, go to the bathroom, etc. I honestly don't care who it upsets, I have the right to choose my own death. If others are upset by that they didn't respect me or know me very well.

I've lost 4 relatives to suicide and the youngest of them was 16.

As a person who has suffered with clinical depression since I was very young , I feel like it is a selfish thing to do. I understand the agony and the need/want to stop it ... but I saw what suicide does to a family after two suicides in my family. As a mother I could never make that choice. My agony would end , but I'd be passing it on to my children and spouse . That's a perspective I wouldn't have had , had I not seen the suffering left behind . So for me , it would be a selfish choice .

When you are actively suicidal, your thought processes are often totally warped. Selfishness doesn't come into at that stage - you are overwhelmed and unable to rationalise.

Everyone hyis freedom of choice. Ity is a shame, especially if it is about young people, but i would not consider most people who do it cowards.

That's simply not true. Hereby you imply that nobody with depression ever gets better or healed and that's close to an insult to patients and Dotors likewise.

Where does it say that? Nowhere. Matt Haig is a survivor of being suicidal and a successful author.

I Mean That’s It, End Of Story.
being Traumatized Wasn’t Designed To Make You Stronger. I Was Designed To Break You Down And Steal Your Joy.
if You’ve Come Out On The Other Side, It Wasn’t A Happy Accident, It’s Because You Did The Work And Lifted Your Self Above And Beyond.

Going through hard times definitely didn't make me stronger. It made me sadder and a lot more fragile and took away a lot of my faith in things.

When asked how the creator of A Safe Place Inside Your Head would best describe the audience who follows their page, Tanner said: “it is a group of like-minded people who want a community where they do not feel alone in their thoughts. We talk about the ugly side of mental health in a relatable way.”

The success of A Safe Place Inside Your Head has to do with relatable memes that hit close to home for many people browsing online. “We make some, we get some from the internet and meme publishers who want to support the cause,” Tanner said when asked how they select content to share on the page, “It is a group effort,” he added.

I will admit that when my depression was at its lowest (besides suicide attempt). I didn't brush my teeth, brush my hair or showered in over 2 weeks. It was all just too hard.

I’m Not Even A Kid And I Want This Mental Health Day Off 🤟🏽
kids Should Be Encouraged To Express Their Emotions, Good Or Bad, And Parents Should Honor Those Feelings As Real. One Of My Sons Recently Confessed To Me That All Those Stomach Aches He Went To The Nurses Office At School With When He Was A Kid Was Actually Anxiety But He Didn’t Know How To Name It. Obviously I Feel Like A Failure As A Parent For Not Giving Him A Voice With His Real Emotions, Until He Was Older.
parents, How Do You Encourage Transparency In Your Children And Support Their Mental Health Needs? - @therealjoirizarry

I Like This Idea So Much More Than Being Told That Toxic People Are Attracted To Empaths. It Literally Puts The Blame On Me For Attracting Them.
hard Facts Is The Empath In Me Keeps Them Around. Because The Broken Should Help The Broken, Right? No… We Shouldn’t, At The Expense Of Healing Ourselves. We Can’t Heal Toxicity In Others. Try To Recognize It And Learn To Walk Away.
don’t Let The Good In You Be Taken For Granted. And Work On Fixing Yourself First Before You Try To Fix Others. You Deserve The Love 💗 You Give To Everyone Else. - @therealjoirizarry

There’s Nothing We Take More Seriously Than Suicide Prevention And Awareness.
having Lost My Son 11 Years Ago To Death By Suicide, We Created A Safe Space For People To Talk About Their Emotion And Their Mental Health Issues To Feel Seen And Heard. We Are Already Strong But The Louder We Get Our Voices Cannot Be Silenced And We Are Raising Mental Health Awareness With Each And Every Post, Like, Comment And Share. Thank You, Community.
please Take This Post Seriously. And Take Mental Health Seriously.

One time when I was at my lowest I was driving around and contemplating where to park and potentially take my own life. An older gentleman was walking down the back road I was on with his wife and he turned and smiled at me with the most genuine smile I'd seen. His wife turned and did the same and they both waved. That couple saved my life by just showing me a moment of genuine humanity by smiling. Guilt was what drove me to want to die. This post made me remember this.

True. Never really thought about that. Was relentlessly bullied as a child and teachers/parents always ignored and brushed under the carpet. I always bury problems deep now, work through in my own space and never tell anyone.

Ugh This Apology Tour Happened At Least Twice A Month For Me. This Hit Home For Me, It May Not Hit Home For Everyone But Damn I Low Key Hate Telling People I’m Depressed Sometimes, It’s Like Do They Even Care Or Will They Even Listen. I’ve Gotten A Lot Better Over The Years Finding Mental Health Support And Love And Trust But I Used To Never Show Up To Things I Committed To. Guess We Can Call It Growth Lol. -Tanner

Posted This To My Personal Instagram Cause I’m Suffering From A Lot Of Self Hate/Loathing Today But This Account Is Like A Diary To Me So I’m Just Gunna Rant A Second. My Potential Relationships Effect My Mental Health So Much. Everyone Is Deserving Of Love, Even If Us Ourselves Don’t Think So. I Can Be So Hard On Myself. I Beat Myself Up Constantly. Lately I’ve Had Thoughts Of “Am I Good Enough”, “Am I Ugly/Not Good Looking”. Things Cross My Mind That Are So Negative But I Have To Put The Love Into Myself That I Want From Others. This Is Me Rambling Because I Am Struggling Today, I Hope Everyone Has Had A Good Day. - @tanner_hamilton22

why Does This Make So Much Sense To Me. Like How Do You Explain (Without Sounding Like An Asshole) That Even The Objects Around Me Are Too Loud!!!! It’s Like Someone Has Turned The Volume Up On Everything, So Much So That Even Movement Begins To Annoy Me. I Hate Sensory Overload So Much. I Hate The Fact That I Come Across Like A Grumpy Bitch When It’s Happening. It’s Super Frustrating. Who’s With Me? ♥️

Posted This Before But I Feel It Tonight. Making Small Talk Is So Hard For Me, I Feel Strongly It Always Ends In The Conversation Dying And My Anxiety Has Me Wondering If I Said Something Wrong. I’ve Been Working On Communication But I Can Only Give So Much So I’ve Decided To Tell People As Nicely As I Can “We Don’t Have To Make Small Talk, I Promise I Won’t Find It Rude If The Conversation Ends Here. We Don’t Have To Do This”. It’s Freed Up A Lot Of Time For Me To Work On My Mental Health But I Had A Ton Of Anxiety Getting To The Point Where I Could Say The Above Statement.

Our generation is the one that's dealing with wake up calls for everything that has been wrong. We're fed up with toxic people, toxic masculinity, homophobia, gender discrimination, glass ceilings. I think it's a hard time to live but it's a historic time to watch and enjoy.
