Jul 26 Word of the Day
Noun: a friend who is usually only called upon by a friend when a more primary/prominent friend is unavailable.
Taken from the term “second string” in an athletic competition situation. In football, if the star quarterback gets injured during a play, the second string is called off the bench to replace him/her. A “Second String Friend” is essentially benched until needed, if ever.
Synonyms: Plan B, Second Choice, Secondary Friend, Benched Until Needed

I got a call from X the other night. She had an extra ticket to a concert she bought for a friend, but they couldn’t make it so she called me to ask if I wanted to go because I am her Second String Friend.

hey, why did you look this up? i know shit gets hard and you feel like you can’t go on, but trust me, you can. you aren't alone. some people might not understand you or your problems, but there's other ppl who understand you even better than they ever could. talk to the right ppl. you aren't alone. no one deserves to be on their own. not even you. i know it's hard to keep on keeping on sometimes. i'm proud you for waking up every day. think about this: do you want to end your life, or do you just want to end the way your life is right now? because i can assure you, you can change your life, you don't have to end it. it's another challenge but you don't have to go through it alone. tell yourself everyday you will hold off for one more day, one more hour, one more minute, whatever you can manage. and please get help if you can't deal with it alone. it should never come this far. suicide is not the solution. talk to someone. talk to a helpline. we need you around because you're important. don't listen to what others tell you. you're beautiful. you're valid. you're strong. you matter. please don't hurt yourself. don't commit suicide. I APPRECIATE YOU. THE WORLD WOULDN’T BE THE SAME WITHOUT YOU. the greatest thing i have ever done is kept going, so please; stay alive.
please don’t commit suicide, if you need anything, send me a message on my podcast’s instagram; @100percenterin.pod

Suicide is serious, I’m not here to joke either, suicide is when a person feels so awful that they Hide themselves form everyone and feels awful about themselves,
Some people joke about suicide but most people who do actually struggle with it, the highest rate of suicide is by Teenagers, People who left Cults, People who lost a lifetime partner.
1 in 70 people kill themselves Some people OD Overdose others shoot themselves, others slit their wrists,
There is hope though, if you are considering suicide call 1-800-273-8255

An act which, despite its distaste to many people, is not to be judged. The most notable of the outcomes is the death of the practitioner - however there are other things to consider. It could be done to prove a point, to end personal suffering, or in other extreme circumstances. Consider, for instance, if one had cancer and knew it to be both incurable and excruciatingly painful - and to make things even simpler this person eighty four years of age - suicide would be justified and probably not looked down on. Many who commit suicide may look on their death as a sort of martyrdom (whether it be a delusion of grandeur or realistic is not my place to decide) and believe that it will prove a point. Then there are those who make what many consider to be a mistake and do it in a fit of passion or rage. As I said earlier, though, it is an action that is not to be judged by the living (or in my mind, by anyone). It is a matter of personal decision as to what is best for ther person considering it. While many would say it is an act of selfishness because of the supposed depression it inflicts on others, one might also question what debt we carry to others? Does meeting someone mean that I must live for their happiness? While it is a selfish act in the truest sense of the phrase - an act carried out in self interest - I would contend that this isn't something to condemn as our bashing of it would be in our own self interest. It is an act of self-indulgent hypocrisy to require someone to live through their sadness because we want to limit our own.
Similarly, one who is considering the act should consider others. Other than in the instance of proving a point, it should be done discreetly and not in an overly dramatic fashion so as not to cause others undue or excess pain. As someone who has considered it many times in the past, I have thought it through very thoroughly, and while some may consider suicidal thoughts a sign of depression I would like to note that it has always cheered me up in my moments of despair as it reminds me of my impermanence and that my troubles will all be over one day. It has allowed me to cope. I speak, mind you, not only as the "melodramatic self-piteous emo goth freak" but also as someone who has been on the other end.
Most notably, one should consider just how irrevocable the act is.

1. My elderly neighbor commited suicide three years ago, and now his suffering is at an end.
2. A friend of the family took a bottle of pills and commited suicide, in a moment of regret she left an appology.
3. Suicide, like many other things, is not ours to judge as right or wrong - but the decision should be weighed heavily.
p.s. saying to god, "you can't fire me, I quit!" lol - that was a good one.
