Ten Years Later

warning this post mentions suicide

Happy December 29th! I can’t believe there are only 2 days left in this year and the next time I post anything will be in 2024 so I want to wish every an early Happy New Year! I hope 2023 was a good year for everyone.

Since this is my last post of 2023 I thought for this post I would share a little piece of my story. Now I’ve done this before but today is the 10th anniversary of my suicide attempt and looking at my life 10 years later I am so glad I survived.

The 2013 was the year that I always refer to as the year that almost broke me in every way. For years I struggled with depression, suicidal thoughts, loneliness, no self esteem and the list goes on. I spent so many years putting on the mask of everything is fine when behind the mask I was struggling with so many things. I had been bullied all though school and by some in my former church. I have experienced sexual trauma and I became a mother at a very young age which lead to even more bullying in high school.
