“getting close to the 15th anniversary of the last most severe suicide attempt. this time of year gets me introspective (yea even more than normal) on the things people i know and i have lost and survived through the years. it's not a bad thing, and the struggle continues another day. i was just thinking yesterday, i'm glad to be here right now. i know that can and probably will change as it does for me often, but life's good enough for now and that's really saying something coming from that kid i was.”
