i never thought id have to talk so many people out of suicide. I wonder what it is about me that compels people to tell me all their worst experiences. While im grateful that they trust me, im not professionally trained so i never know if im saying the right things to comfort them. what am i supposed to say when my friends tell me theyve been raped, that theyve attempted suicide three times, that they want to kill themselves, that as a child they were molested, that they wish they didnt exist? what am i supposed to say. I try my best but i cant really do much can i. Only so much a text can do.
