We'll talk about the several factors that make people more likely to have these thoughts, how I push through them, and I have one ask for help from you at the end.For anyone who struggles with their thoughts, know you're not alone. You are wanted in this world. If you need to talk, the 988 Lifeline is there to call, text, or chat.
