MY REASON
Suicide has not been a stranger in my life. I always assumed that I’d be the next one who didn’t make it out. That at some point, the weight would be too much. That 25 was a number I’d never see.
That’s why I’m doing this!
Because we shouldn't have to wait until someone is in crisis to care. Because silence is where so many of us suffer. Because it’s time we stop pretending mental illness is shameful or someone else’s problem.
This campaign isn’t just about raising awareness; it’s about fighting for prevention. For real, evidence-based research into early intervention. For systems and support that could’ve been there for so many of us long before we ever hit rock bottom.
Silence is where so many people suffer. So for 20 hours, I’ll sit in it…to say something louder than words ever could. For the friends I can’t call anymore. For the version of me that didn’t think I’d survive. For the ones still fighting like hell every single day.
