I'm trying really hard to distract myself today by reading posts etc. cuz today is the 2 year anniversary of when my grandson took his own life, but it's just not working. We last saw him alive on 10/08/20. They came for a visit, we said our goodbyes & I love you's. He then came back out of the car, gave me another hug & "I love you." Looking back, I realized he was saying his last goodbye, & had made up his mind, little did I know that at the time. 3 days later he was gone. Every time I think of him I get a lump in my throat. I had a small sense something wasn't right, there were small signs. I can only hope & pray that he has found the light he so desperately could not find here on earth, that he had to take his own life, that he is surrounded by love & others who have passed on. Child suicides increased a LOT in 2020, but it's not talked about much. I'm not looking for sympathy here, just a reminder to talk to your kids/grand kids, or any child, it could save their life.

My heart goes out to you. These kids are so eager to find that connection. I too am dealing with depression with my daughter, she is in the hospital as we speak. Asking for prayers to lift her up and bring light into her life again. She has been fine, until these stupid doctors put her on medication for her anxiety, and for the past month I have seen a decline in her mental state. So nope those things are not helping, they are doing the complete opposite. My heart in breaking for her right now. Praying that we can get her the right help and it not be more meds. GOD SPEED!
