Things that keep me here-
My pets. It breaks my heart and brings me to tears to think of how they would miss me. It would be a terrible thing to leave them. Above all, they have kept me here, they have been the one thing stopping me in my darkest hours.
I'm in love with everything. I love the different shapes of trees and how they blow in the wind. I love to smell things in the air. I love the feeling of sunshine or rain on my skin. I love grass and sand and carpet and cold floors. I love soft things on my skin, fresh sheets, animals. I love architecture and to think of how much humans have created, how far we've come. I love art and I love fossils, dinosaurs. I love to do childlike things and play with toys. I love different variations of color.
I love the parts of life that I can enjoy from afar, the things that are just for me.

These are what I hold tight to when I consider ending it all. How much easier it would be to stop hurting and to stop hurting those around me. How nice it would be to feel like a person, instead of a wild animal, instead of someone so angry inside.
These things. Not my husband, not my family, just these small things.
