It's refreshing to see that people actually want to talk about it. Most people think you're crazy if you've ever even thought about suicide, and they pity you if you know someone who has. It's such a sad thing.

Anyway, the "talk about it" atmosphere will be one that requires some getting used to on my part. I'm not used to talking about anything, especially with people I don't know. But I have come to realize that I won't get any better if I continue to hide things from people. I'm not any less of a person because I have these feelings. It just means that I feel things and cope with them in a different way and that's ok. I just wish I didn't have to have them in the first place
