hey please don't do anything!! I understand your pain and at times I know what if feels like to wanna die. Throw away the bottle now. If you're really angry at something, punch a pillow or go outdoors and scream as loud as you can. Eat some ice really quickly or have a freesing cold shower!! Just don't do anything that will harm you right now please. If you wanna talk, let me know ok. Bri xo

Please don't do anything! I agree, just throw the bottle of pills away...it may hurt at first but you'll be glad you did it...and I've never known anyone to kill themselves on a bottle of ibuprofen...just mess up their liver, end up in a psych hospital, etc... It sounds like you've never reached out for help before, and the first time is definitely the hardest. I didn't do it the right way (when I was 16), and I ended up in the hospital, but if you could just find someone who you trust...I know its hard, but your teachers care about you and only want the best for you...please take the gamble and reach out...

huni, please dont do anything. you need to get rid of the pills, i know its hard coz just knowing there there is probs what your holidng onto. but like disarm sed you wont kill yourself just a bit of damge and end up on a psych ward.

you need to take that first step hun. i know its really scary because you dont know what will happen but once you take that first step you'l get the help you ned hun. please just let someone know how bad your doing, what about your teacher just do your best. they are there to watch uot for you aswell as teach yuo. and if like you said they understadn i'm sure they'll b there for you.

you know where i am xx

In bad times it's best to go with your heart and talk to the perosn that you want to talk to no matter how hard or awkward you feel. Life is tough at times and but take time out and think 2 or 3 times about what you want to do. Keep as level as possible and go from there. Love and hugs to you x x

A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
