“Hey Look Ma, I Made It!”

This person came from Tumblr a few months ago and I had to share it. I did get permission from this person to share.

This is just one of many.

“You’re more amazing than I thought you’d be, Lexy. The day I came to you for help was the day I was planning on taking my own life. I had tried multiple times to reach out for help but it never went anywhere. Family and friends knew about my depression but didn’t know how to help. You were like an answer to a silent prayer. I wanted to leave this life for a long time but pushed myself for so long to keep fighting. That day I messaged you, I couldn’t understand how someone could literally drop everything they’re doing just to talk to someone like me. We talked for 4 hours about me and what I wanted to be. The way you made me feel like I was part of your life was incredible. You created this bond that made me feel alive. You made me feel whole again. You made the light finally shine through the hurricane that I thought wouldn’t end. You brought this amazing calmness when we were talking. My family thanks you everyday for bringing me closer to them. I couldn’t ask for someone as amazing as you to become a friend of mine. You were and are the best person I’ve known. I’ll be spreading the love you gave me and I won’t ever think twice about being genuine. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me, Lexy. You’re the light of my life that will always shine bright.”

I'm only sharing this message I received because it's actual proof that things can and will get better with the right help.
