A SERIOUS BLOG TIME WITH SAM:
Suicide awareness: Please take head and help!

So, I had a strong urge to write this today and it is on the subject of suicide and peoples responses to it.
Suicide: A self murder.
Now, I don’t want people to take me wrong when I write this, but with suicide becoming an uprising problem, I want to write this to explain my point of view on this subject.
What would have been Chris Cornell’s 53rd birthday, Linkin’ Park singer Chester Bennington committed suicide by hanging himself. Fans and people were upset and surges of people bought Linkin’ Park’s Music.
Musicians of all types brought support and sympathy to the band and his family. Alot of people cared. Yet, there are a few who call people who commit suicide cowards.
“That person was a coward! Why didn’t they ask for help? Do they not realize people care about them?
People who commit suicide are not cowards!
Yes, they can ask for help and the help is there, but they do not feel like anyone would care to help them out. People with suicidal thoughts Are in such a down state of mind that they think that nobody would care if they killed themselves.
We are so quick to call these people cowards and make them feel bad about the fact that they attempted to take their life.
Do you not realize that if you commit suicide that you are hurting people close to you? Do you not realize that people here care about you.
Instead of saying that, ask them how are they doing or ask them are they okay. Don’t get angry with them or tell them they are cowards. Suicide is not a coward move. They are trying to end pain that they cannot handle. Suicidal people need help!
Suicide isn’t the answer, so please ask for help!
Sam!
