Sometimes, for some reason it is easier for me to think/write in English.
Maybe it's just easier to talk about that kind of issues.
Maybe I'd have too many words in my first language.
Maybe I suffer in my first language?
Maybe we all do.
Or maybe we all suffer in the same ''language'', because we are all human?

September 10 was a Suicide Prevention Day.
It is important to talk about it, because globally EVERY 40 SECOND someone dies by suicide.(It hurts to even think about it)
I know how it feels, when you want to die. When you don't believe anything good can happen to you ever again.
When you're too tired to try again.
When you can't see any other escape and you just want it to end.
You want everything to end, because you feel tired all the time and there is nothing that makes you feel good.
People who are planning suicide are here, with us, sitting next to you in your office, standing next to you in the bus. They look just like you.
No, you probably can’t tell.
But we CAN and we really SHOULD prevent it, because it is possible. Because you never know what it is that can safe someone.
Tell your child it is OK to be sad, tell your friend and the ones you love that it is normal to be angry, disapointed, broken-hearted, or just need some time alone or to sleep all saturday or even all weekend. Take care of yourself first, it is not selfish, it is necessary. It is important to have someone to talk about how you really feel.

It is OK NOT to be OK and we should normalize asking for help. Let’s normalize being single and finding love whenever the fuck we want.
Let's normalize going to the doctor to SAFE YOUR LIFE.
It is possible. I would know.
So yeah, I know how it feels.
It sucks but I am glad I am here, alive, even though I feel like shit sometimes.
It is hope, and maybe someone will find it, because of you?
Maybe this person does not want to die.
Maybe he/she wants to LIVE a different life?
I am not my face.
I am not my scars.
I am not what happened to me.
I am not my body.
I am not my job.
I am not my accomplishments.
I am not my titles.
I am not my education.
I am not my mother.
I am not my father.
I am not my relationship status.
I am not a half, I am a whole and that’s why I can even love somebody.
I am who I CHOOSE to be everyday.
I am how I choose to react.
And if I choose not to - it is still a choice.
I am me, and there is no one else like me.
I am me, making mistakes, because I am human.
I am me - trying.
You are you and there is no one like you in this world.
It is OK if you're not OK.
it is OK of I'm not OK.
This is not my fault.
This is not your fault.
I am enough.
And so are you.
And so are you.
