It’s a scary topic for a lot of people but it’s a necessary conversation to have for Theresa and America. There is a difference between thoughts of death and contemplating suicide; it’s vital to find that line that separates the two. Theresa finds comfort in being open about her thoughts on death and why they suggest checking in with someone is important.

I’ve been having these thoughts for about 2 weeks now and it’s like whenever imthinking about it now it numbs me and it feels like I’m going to die as I’m thinking about it and I’m only 11 everytime I think about death it makes me think of everybody who would miss me and I dont understand why they would miss me because I’m in a better place? I’m gonna start talking to a therapist luckily though please pray that it works! 🙏

I have lost a child 3 months ago.. and lost my lover three weeks ago as she checked herself into a mental hospital, wanting to kill herself. This week my therapist of 7 sessions talked again about dumping me off to a therapist I have never met. I feel I have lost too much to continue to want to get better. Why would I avoid death by seeking more help, when my therapist has given up on me?
