I am a two time survivor from suicide I guess God was not ready for me at the time. It is a crippling disease that continues to bring you down to a point where nothing no longer matters. Family, friends or life. Do not be afraid or embarrassed to reach out for help when you start going in that downward spiraling moment in your life. Most of all do not be afraid to reach out to God for help as he is always with you.

Sadly last week he pulled over on the freeway, walked out into the tall grass lay down and shot himself. My heart is so heavy. I didnt know how to help him. All my prayers for him went unanswered. RIP little brother the pain is gone now. I just saw this, my heart is broken for you and your family...my daughter is in the danger zone for this. Mental health is truly the most important issue in the United States right now, I cannot stress enough, if you know someone struggling, PLEASE make sure they are ok. I am saddened when a person feels that they cannot continue with life, because of what they feel! LOVE people (everyone) and if you think someone is going through a rough time, let them know that they are not alone! Peej, I have no words of encouragement, but I hope you can find peace with your brother's decision (I'm literally crying right now) because it had nothing to do with you, I hope you can accept that! My love sent your way! God Bless! Act like a blank, get treated like a blank. Insert your own blank!
