High School Dropouts
High School Dropouts
Why is the world so hung up on the fact that they believe every kid that drops out of highschool is involved in drugs, some sort of criminal violence, or bored with school. I mean seriously do you really think that we drop out because we look forward to having a non-successful future? Im 16, and I had no choice but to drop out. Most families can't afford to send their kids to school. Even public school. I know a few drop outs including myself that we try to look up online courses so we dont fall behind in case we ever get the chance to return to school. but even then they dont allow you. you have to have your GED or diploma. its a bunch of BS personally. I get judged along with many others because of stuff I can't control. It shouldnt be like this.
Selfish=Suicide
Selfish=Suicide
Most people say that if a person considers, or attempts suicide they are selfish. What makes you think this? When I considered suicide because of some trouble with my dad, trust me, the last thing I thought of was myself. Right before you commit the act to commit suicide you think of your family, your friends, and everyone that was there for you.
Sure, some diseases and medical problems can lead up to it, but most of it is what happens throughout your life. If you have a family member saying they hate you, or a friend putting you down constantly. A person can only take it so long before they snap.
At www.afsp.org they tell you that if you find out that a friend of yours is considering suicide to seek professional help right away. This is the wrong thing to do at the time. The person who is considering suicide most likely does not want to go to some therapist who has no idea what they've been through. The best thing to do is sit down with them talk to them, ask them what has made them come to this conclusion to take their life. Avoid statements like: "I know", "I've been through it too", "What about your family and friends". Just talk to them, keep them calm, and let them know your there.
Also, remember when something thinks about suicide, it will always stay with them. It's something they won't forget, they may try, they'll deny it, but no matter what they try they'll remember the day they thought about taking their life, what led to it, who was there to convince them someone cares, and who talked them out of it.
What makes life worth living for?
What makes life worth living for?
Is it our families? Our friends? I've thought about this question for a long time. And I still can't figure it out. I used to believe that the purpose of life was to live each day as if it were your last. I used to not be afraid of death. What changed?
I want to have a family someday. I want to find true love. But what is motivating me to do so. Honestly, nothing. Maybe there is no purpose of life. Maybe there isn't anything that makes life worth living for.
what do you think makes your life worth living?
