I don’t know if I’m completely recovered, but I lost two very close friends to suicide in the span of six months. I spiraled, and it all came to a head when I tried to hang myself. I woke up on the floor because the rope had come undone after I went unconscious, and something just clicked. I got on antidepressants and started taking therapy seriously. I’m now generally happy. I still have little bumps now and again, but I’m pretty sure that’s normal, and I know how to deal with them now. My gpa shot up from 3.3 to 3.9, and I now have hobbies and interests for the first time since I was a kid. Honestly? I’m so thankful every day that I’m really fucking shitty at tying knots lol
