Take care of yourself
Look y'all, the contagion effect of suicide is real and we’re in the middle of one right now so if Facebook or Instagram or Reddit or Tumblr is not helping you cope, get away from that shit. Delete the app. Blacklist the tags. Take a break. Don’t go looking for more information, it won’t help you. If you think it does, ask yourself what you’re getting out of it. This isn’t a sign that everything is over. They don’t want you to follow them. Their success had nothing to do with their mental illness, or their death.
If you’re feeling elevated, talk to someone. Anyone. Do some busy work for five minutes and check back in with yourself. Ask someone you trust to take whatever you think you’d use away. Lock it up. Call your friend, your sponsor, you’re therapist, a hotline. If you think you need more help seek that out, if it’s clergy or a therapist or a hospital, whatever you need to get through.
Take care of yourself
