    Chris,thankyou for your story of your son Luke and sharing his loss with us.I lost my son Sean,50yrs old the day after Thanksgiving last year.He had struggled with anxiety and depression for many years.He had tried many things to help.He was finally put on disability.After your child turns 18 they have to consent to treatment for mental health.I had taken him to the hospital several times but he could always leave pr not take the medications.He was a smart,loving funny man,He was very tenderhearted.My health turned bad last year and I wasnt able to be with him or talk to him as much with 2 hospitalizations.He had 3 children in college and so he had empty nest syndrome.I had texted him and talked to him before Thanksgiving.His daughter said he asked that his kids come over another time but now on the holiday.That alerted me something was very wrong.He always wanted to be with his kids.When I got home from being in the hospitalizations I found a package.It had a silver cross necklace in it.We were notified the next day that he had shot himself,I was so stunned and still am.I think Im finally able to feel some of the loss now.He has 2 sisters.We have pulled together to be closer.Seeing these videos and comments have helped me to know Im not alone.Thankyou so much for sharing I appreicate you and care.Dori

    Nothing can take away this pain, the empty feeling and the nervous tension. The pounding in your heart and the guilt. No future children, no grandchildren nothing can alter the fact that you will never feel those arms around you, hear that voice again, laugh with that person again or indeed share anything at all. The loss is massive, the grief is even more massive and you find youself longing to join your lost one.

      People leave for why they leave. People have a right to their own thresholds of pain. If somebody is ready to go, let them go. People need to learn that life is evil and antinatalism ought to be practiced. Yet I bet you are still pro-life, despite having your life tainted by the loss of your loved one.

      @@slopez1901My daughter attempted 3 days ago by overdosing. She was home alone and she says she doesn’t understand why she called for help but she was in her mind fighting herself. I KNOW that was God pressing her to save herself. She’s still in a bad place mentally but she’s 15 and belongs to God. The enemy is attacking our youth right now because we are in the end times. Pray for these children in the world! They need our prayers 🙏🏼

    Thank you for posting this. Do you think the anti-depressants which Luke started 6 mnths prior had something to do with the suicidal thoughts? I've heard that can happen. Also, did you go through any anger? Or blame?

    • @JB-ChildOfYah
      @JB-ChildOfYah 7 месяцев назад +3

      Oh my gosh, don’t say that. My daughter attempted 3 days ago and they are putting her on Lexapro and Abilify. My nerves are shot and will certainly be researching these drugs as I can’t allow her to feel worse when we’re trying to get her better. This is SO hard!! 😔

    For those struggling, hang in there, Jesus loves you. Seek him daily and he will carry you through your trials and heal you along the way.
    He is very near to the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds and comforts them, He is coming soon (Revelation & John 3.16), continue to seek him, one day our tribulation will be over, our tears wiped away and we will not have anymore sorrow.
    God bless u all, praying for ur healing, your life is valuable to God, he is the one that created you and the only one that can fill that void we may all try to fill with other things 🙏
