[Trigger Warning - Suicide] Let's come up with a million reasons to live!
I'll start.
1. Life is a puzzle without a predefined shape. Some of us start out with a bunch of pieces that fit together. Others start with a bunch of mismatched pieces that don't make sense until later. Just because you don't like the picture so far doesn't mean you won't ever. You always have more power to better your life and those of those around you than you think. You get to decide how your puzzle pieces fit together and it's okay if you don't know yet. You have permission to not know.

I know life is easy at all, Even when our problems differ..we all will supplicate to the God at night and cry ....
But even though you can make it better by doing what you love,by have your people who love you and you do too, by care about yourself, health, mind and surely your awesome soul
It's okay bad moments, bad days even bad years, be sure it all will end ...suci** it's not a solution it is something useless
If you have its thoughts, just relax, breathe, go on picnic....and never forget l am here with my whole attention for you ❤
@passionateCup3122 Thanks so much for contributing your encouraging words! This is great advice!
@igetcha...it's my duty,we all in this together ❤
But your words encourage me more

First of all, just wanted to say that I love this idea so much. Ive collected many reasons over the years, and I hold them all pretty close to me. While I think that reasons are heavily based on what makes sense to us personally (what works for me may not work for you), I figured Id share a bit of my own insight:
1. Were all the victims of lifes accidents
A lot of the time, life is really, like painfully awful. Some people may not experience the awful parts that much, some people feel it a lot. All of our lives are comprised of series of accidents — good and bad. The unfortunate truth is, we cant handle the cards weve been dealt. Its not your fault if life decided to throw something terrible at you. Its not your fault if life keeps throwing terrible things at you. You cant control the world around you, and your luck may suck but that doesnt mean you do. You can still control how you react in the face of adversity, and you can still be strong regardless.
2. Youre not crazy
You have every right to feel the way you do. Your pain, and confusion, and anger at the world around you — it all makes perfect sense: its totally justified. With what youve been through, it makes sense why you feel the way you do. A lot of people have been in a place similar to you, and felt what you feel. A lot have people have felt exhausted from fighting with their own reality this much, and it makes sense why you wouldnt want to keep fighting. But that doesnt mean its right, or the best decision. There are ways to get past these feelings, and live on, and live better.
Ive got a lot more where this came from, but Ill leave it at that for now. To everyone that just read this: I wish you all the best in everything your future brings you. You're always welcome to PM me for more insight/anything you want to chat about ❤️
@drearienne
Thanks alot,you gave me hope again
@Pam1994
I really am very grateful that my words could do that for you. If everything I've been through could mean that much to someone else...well, I don't know how to really say this but I'm touched. Thank you so much for being you and having hope. Please don't let go of that, I know it's hard to find and hard to stick with. Lastly, keep in mind that just by being here and getting help, you are creating hope for yourself. You're looking to a future, and as long as you're doing that, you're making sure that you will live to see tomorrow.
I would tell you to message me if you need anything, but I'm not on the adult version of the site. So I'll just leave it at this: someone will be here for you if you need anything. ❤️ Thank you again for doing this, and I wish you all the strength in facing whatever life brings you.

3. My pets love me unconditionally
The reasons can be general insights/quotes etc. or personal stories. Anything that can give people hope in their situation & show them they're not an exception to the rule that there's something on this planet for everyone.
Hi everyone! Newbie here, but been fighting depression for a couple decades. Thank you for making this thread, I've really needed it this week. Here's a couple of my reasons:
1. Starting class next month.
2. My big brother is visiting at the end of the year.
3. Concert tickets for next year.
A reason to stay alive is for when you meet your friends pet and it really likes you for some unknown reason, because the joy you feel in that moment is a reason you should stay alive, to feel that joy in lots of other moments❤️
