I'm glad you had the strength to admit those kind of things to your mom. The people we are closest to are often the one's that are harder to talk to. And your not a coward. People who cut and kill themselves are, because they don't want to deal with the pain. They to want to admit to reality. So good on you for being strong enough to not cut. That takes courage, not cowardness. (I don't think that is a word, but whatev.)
Friends are there to make sacfrices, Bea. I sacrificed talking to you about my problems because I knew that your problems were more important than mine. Yeah, I have my days when I feel like suicide would be nice and ending my life would be good. Yeah, sometimes I wish that I could talk to people about it instead of people coming to me with their problems, but to me, you coming to me to ask for help is friendship. It's what we do. No fears.
You're definitely not a coward. If you could admit those things to your mother, then you are a very brave person. I have to agree with Sree that suicide is a cowardice. Life isn't easy. It's the hardest thing ever. There's roadblocks and U-turns and walls you have to climb over. I've been in this situation where I hated everything about myself. I've thought of suicide so many times, but I could never do it.
Slowly, I've came to terms with myself, and I love myself more each day. If you ever need anyone to talk to, or you just need someone to listen, you can always come to me!!
You've never made me feel alone or hated, okay? You made me feel important. You made me feel like I was actially helping someone for once, which is the most important thing right now.
And no, you're not a coward. I'm sorry if this is bitchy, but in my opinion, suicide is cowardice and you were able to stop yourself. That is the fucking bravest thing ever.
And your not a coward. People who cut and kill themselves are, because they don't want to deal with the pain. They to want to admit to reality.
So good on you for being strong enough to not cut. That takes courage, not cowardness. (I don't think that is a word, but whatev.)
