there was a point in my life where everything seemed to be going wrong. everyone was mad at me and everything i did was wrong. i did think of ending my life then. i was 19 at the time. i even stood at the edge of the terreace on my building. i stood that way for a long time but in the end i just couldnt do it. the thought of all my loved ones who would be hurt if i jumped, it was just too much to bear. i decided to brave whatever was happening and i hoped that things would be better, and you know what they did. im glad i changed my mind that day. life is good now.

yes i have, i was living in a foster home and i was getting tired of moving around and sad becasue my parents never wanted me and so on. anyway i took a bottle of aspirin and got really sick and had to get my stomach pumped. i'm now glad i didn't die. i've now learned to forget about the past and live my life the way i want.

no, never tried to end my life. I do think that this is the big mistake that a man can do, even if life is not so "pink".
