A couple moments ago I searched “suicide” on tumblr, partially out of curiosity and partially to see if I could find some eloquent artwork to put on my personal blog.
What I found was heart-wrenching.
There are so many people on tumblr who feel hopeless. Like everything is lost, like nothing matters. Like no one cares. I scrolled wistfully—it’s agony, honestly, seeing so many people hurting so badly. The majority I found didn’t seem actively suicidal, but more like they play with the idea over and over in their minds. That they lack the self-worth and light in their lives to put away those thoughts is unbearable to me. I wish I could save everyone.
But if I can’t, I’ll do what I can.
If any of you ever need someone to talk to,
something you want to get off your chest

My ask box is always open, you can be anon or not. I can answer you privately if you prefer that.
But please know you are never alone. When you feel like no one cares—remember I do.
I know you don’t know me,
but I’m dead honest.
If you need someone to call, I can be that person too.
I love you guys so much.
There’s a lot of you.
I bet there’s a lot who are hurting.
You’re not alone.
I’m here.
