Last year I had a conversation with two friends about my suicidal thoughts. Though I'm not currently actively suicidal it feels like I am always convincing myself to stay alive with new excuses. First it was graduating high school. Now it's getting a job. Never for my sake like you said about yourself. One day I wonder if I'll run out of reasons. Maybe then I'll be forced to realize my own worth

Don't show me frogs and snakes
And listen for my scream,
If I'm afraid at all
It's only in my dreams.
I've got a magic charm
That I keep up my sleeve
I can walk the ocean floor
And never have to breathe.
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Not at all
Not at all.
Life doesn't frighten me at all.
