If you\u2019re uncomfortable talking to someone, there are texting options and online mental health wellbeing communites to explore. If you&#8217;re feeling suicidal or in deep pain, please know that you are cared for and reach out. You may feel like this now because the pain you are feeling has become unbearable. Just talking to someone else about how you are feeling can take some of that weight off your shoulders. There may be other things you can do to help yourself cope, to change things, to survive. It is incredibly sad that you feel so bad that you want to die. You may be telling yourself that other people would be better off without you but other people would not want you to take your life. But this simply isn\u2019t true. You are cared for and there are people here right now ready to help you.<\/p><p data-start=\"1128\" data-end=\"1233\" data-is-last-node=\"\"
