Tried and Failed...
6 years ago
*sighs* Sometimes, it doesn't pay to try to keep someone from suicide. Tried to help out a young fur from Norway that me and another (ex-fur) brother knew and have been communicating with through Discord. My brother went offline for a few days (to take a break from Social Media) and asked me to talk to the younger fur and help him out. Only, today, because our younger furiend's girlfriend lied to him, obviously EVERYBODY that said they cared for him was a liar. And NATURALLY, my trying to convince him that my brother and I WEREN'T lying and wanted to help him out was stating that HE (the younger fur) WAS lying...and, because I didn't "believe him", he blocked me . So, now, I get the unenviable task of telling my brother (once he comes back online) that I've "lost" our friend. *shakes my head sadly* I hate to say this, but whatever happens to him, on his own head be it! I tried...and obviously failed.

I don't know how young this fur is, but when I was in my teens I contemplated suicide more than once. It was like every incident or setback, no matter how big or small, was The End of the World. No point trying to carry on, what's the use, etc etc.
I blame a combination of teenage hormones, constantly having to hide who I was and what I was feeling, and a bad living situation at the time for it all. But, I grew out of it. I'm still here. Hopefully this young one will be too.
