Never again will I go to an all day fishing tournament with my friends. Woke up at 5 a.m. and was on the beach by 6:30. Stayed till 3 p.m.

Never. Again.

I graduate from college this Saturday.

I’m all about seeking help if you’re suicidal. I’m all about trying to help someone if they come to me telling me they want to kill themselves. But, sorry, when someone posts it publicly on Facebook, I don’t see it as anything more than a cry for attention. I look at it the same way I look at people who fish for compliments (ex. I’m so fat and ugly, nobody loves me!).

To say that if your friend hadn’t hid your knife, you’d be dead now, that you’d be slitting your throat… on Facebook, of all places… I just, no. No. No.

I know some people may not agree, and maybe thinking this makes me a bad person, but I know the guy, hell, I dated him. I know him well enough to know that he his a big baby and all he ever does is complain while his life is not all that bad. He’s nineteen and living on his own, but he expects his parents to take care of everything for him. He even got mad that his dad didn’t give him a bunch of cash for his birthday (uhm, not only did I not even see my mom on my last birthday, I didn’t get squat from her either). In fact, his financial situation sucks because he only spends his money on video games and booze. He’s all hung up over a girl who dumped him years ago and has totally moved on and funnily enough, dated my first boyfriend.

I know he’s tried it before, and we had a serious conversation about it where I did actually try to help him. I tried talking him out of believing he had no other way out. And all that I know about him, I honestly think that he’s just trying to milk it now. He straight up told me that the only way he could ever be completely happy, is if knows someone loves him. Good timing on his part to tell me that though, since the night before he said he loved me and I didn’t say it back.

Basically, what I’m getting at is if you are having suicidal thoughts, if you’ve already tried to kill yourself, actually seek out a friend or family member, ANYONE who can help you. Don’t post that shit on Facebook.

Think of it as the little boy who cried wolf… The more you post on Facebook, saying you want to kill yourself, the less people believe you and the more they get annoyed with you. It’s hard for people to know when they should actually help if you’re always crying wolf.
