place your hand over your heart. do you feel it beating? that means you're alive. there's a difference between being alive and just living. don't change yourself because someone has a problem with it. you're suicidal? just think about how your parents felt when you were born. they brought this healthy baby on this earth for a reason. their tears drop because of happiness that YOU will change this world. please don't ever do it if you're considering. DO NOT make a permanent mistake for a temporary problem. need advice? my ask is ALWAYS open. have a nice day(:
