Vacillating between feeling breathlessly sad, and breathlessly enraged. Suicide in general makes me angry. I’ve had people in my family do it and it almost feels like an act of violence upon all of us left behind, including children, and that’s what makes me enraged. Parents shouldn’t get to leave off and abandon their children that way. I cannot accept it. Will not.

Brutal read. Soooo many emotions, some of them not too kind. I’m vacillating between anger and disbelief and sadness and empathy. It’s an all over the board kind of read for emotions. Part also made me cry. Suicide is so so painful is so many ways to so many of the people left behind. If the people ending their own pain realized the life-sentence of pain that they give the living, could they try harder to stay?

I just came upon this sentence and I wholeheartedly do NOT agree with it at all.
“..but more important than loving is understanding and respecting my children, which includes, more than anything else, understanding and respecting their choices to end their lives.”

Is she fucking kidding me? They were children.
I can’t even.
