Recently, I observed that she's constantly updating sad stuffs on her WhatsApp status. I enquired about what the challenge could be but she wouldn't share. I kept giving her positive replies,tried to encourage her and even consciously share some of my experiences to engage her in a conversation. That way, I try to perceive her challenge and equally get to know her perception of certain things.

I for one, used to be a very quiet and sad child, extremely reserved too. Depression was a constant thing for me. Everyone around me knew I wasn't one who could smile. I was always so serious and got pissed so easily.
I really did hate to share my challenges. Yes, the world isn't really a safe place as we have lot's of wolves in sheep clothing but overtime I realized good and very kind hearted people still do exist.
Seeing that my reserved attitude wasn't helping me... at a point I even contemplated commiting suicide 😢 Well, I spoke to someone about my worries, it was as if I would give up that particular day. I poured my heart to a kind soul who listened with maximum attentiveness.
He said to me "cry if you want to, let it all out". Though I really hate to be emotional, I held nothing back. I cried so badly, letting all my pain out.
At the end of it all, he advised me, explained things to me and helped me have a better understanding of things, he prayed for me too. The kind of peace I felt that day is unspeakable!
Today, I have gotten over those challenges and now I'm one hell of a happy soul. It's almost impossible to get sad, even if I'm sad or angry, I wake up the next morning feeling much more energized than before. I reach out to people who give me good vibes and I spread the positivity to everyone around me.
So to you out there who's going through so much, please don't die in silence. The rate at which suicidal deaths are recorded around the globe doesn't seem to depreciate but rather it's increasing. Open up to people you can trust and never forget that problem shared is problem half solved (if not completely solved)
