In another development, President Trump supports the “IAmVanessaGuillen” bill, which would allow service members claiming sexual harassment to avoid going through their chain of command and instead report mistreatment claims to a toll-free 800 number.

There have been times where I have thought about whether its better for me to be gone than to live my life with anxiety issues as well as other health issues. Then I would think about my family and my dogs and how it would impact them and their lives.

So even though each day is a struggle because of 1 thing or another, I will continue to keep fighting those demons.

With the love and support of my family I know that I can continue to do battle within my own mind and heart.

I was happy to sign this pledge. I have noticed some of the stock graphics used in display ads on the site are not aligned with the cause.

This is a complete waste of time and effort being perpetrated by a "Nanny" society that worships Rainbows and Unicorns. This can be traced back to the "Touchy Feely" liberal Wussies that wanted men to "get in touch with their femenine side" and women to be empowered. One moment you revile us as "Baby Killers" and the next you want us to join the chorus and sing Kumbaya because we all have PTSD.
You are perfect examples of the quote: "Life is hard, but it is even harder if you are stupid" attributed to Anonymous. Attempted suicide is called "a cry for help", mostly because it is associated with a weak emotional support group. If you seriously analyzed the cases of successful suicide you would find that it is sought as a release from intolerable circumstances. You can pontificate about suicide, but because it is viewed as escapism, weakness, and failure, family, friends, and potential suicides consider the topic taboo. You have no idea what thoughts occur to a person in the last moments of their life. If there is a problem, it is your refusal to accept that death is inevitable and no one needs your permission to die prematurely by their own hand. You are not idealist with Utopian dreams of a cure for cancer and eventually our mortality. You are delusional tyrants that want to force people with intolerable physical and emotional pain to endure and suffer. The most outrageous example of your failure is the woman who overdosed on fentanyl four times in one day and was revived four times by paramedics. Your hypocrisy at endorsing elective abortion and refusing to allow criminals that are little more than rabid dogs to be put down with fentanyl. This drug must not result in an inhumane or cruel death if people are willing to voluntarily take a lethal dose multiple times on the same day.
