Recently, I've been having a lot of problems in my life, and it's getting to the point where I can't take it anymore. The idea of suicide has been on my mind for several years, and sometimes I really don't think I can go on. I've tried slitting my wrists, but when the knife touches my skin, it hurts so much that I shrink my hand; I've thought about jumping off a building, but I'm afraid that I won't die from the fall, but I'll suffer more; and jumping into a river, but I can't even find a suitable place nearby. I've secretly looked into many other methods, but every time I really want to do it, that fear comes out and stops me. Is this just a moment of sentimentality on my part, or is there some deeper reason for it?
Hello, Mr. Owner! I'm Whale Social Worker Xiao Bei, and I'd like to start by giving you a spaced-out hug ~ I can especially relate to how you're feeling right now. From what you've shared, I can sense that you've been under a lot of stress lately, and even plagued by thoughts of lightening your life. But I'm really glad that you haven't let these thoughts turn into actions, which shows that there is still a strength inside you that is struggling.
🍍 Let's start by talking about the things that bother us. Life is like this, there will always encounter a variety of hurdles, but everyone copes in different ways, which is often related to our upbringing. In fact, when you think about it from another angle, a lot of things at the time that the sky is falling, but after looking back it is not so serious. Just like when I was a child, I felt the end of the world when I failed the exam, but now I don't laugh it off. These troubles are just small waves in the river of human growth.
🌼 Remember oh, there are always more solutions than difficulties! If you can't solve it on your own, don't take it hard. Finding a friend to spill your guts or seeking professional psychological support can allow emotions to find an outlet. Death is not a relief, and the pain it brings may be far more than you can imagine. If you're not even afraid of death, what other hurdles are you afraid to face?
Good luck with slowly coming out of the haze ~ (whale social worker 🐳)
