Well I got my very first tattoo today. "Never Lose Hope" with the semicolon. During my senior year I fought with Depression. . Everyday was a new one in hell for me! I hated myself, My actions, Everybody, and just life itself. . I considered suicide one too many times, because I lost all hope to succeed, to be who I wanted, and to Live. I wasn't "Ashley" anymore!! I had never seen myself so upset before. . I was scared that I was never going to be happy again!! As time passed Graduation came closer. I just felt like giving up, because I couldn't do it anyways. . I pushed myself though! I saw that I was able to succeed before so why can't I do it now?? I showed myself with the right help, Anything can be done! I was able to graduate on time. . And I am BEYOND happy to say that I haven't been depressed in almost three months! I've been able to see each day is a blessing and I couldn't be happier to be here. I know I've made mistakes. . I know I've hurt people as well as people have hurt me and they've made mistakes, but you can't dwell on the past, because it'll just kill you in the end! Everything happens for a reason and you just gotta learn from your mistakes. I've encountered many obstacles on this Journey, but NOTHING is stopping me. "Success is your journey through life everyday. With lessons learned! Mistakes Altered and just moving on". . I have a will to continue. . THIS ISN'T THE END BUT A NEW BEGININGMy first tattoo in support of suicide preventionSuicide awareness hopeing to have this on my neck somedaySymbolizing my many failed suicide attempts, that no matter how I tried, no matter the reasons, something, somehow kept me alive for an obvious reason unknown to me that apparently my work here on earth ain't complete yet.

I've had depression for a while and I also used drugs pretty heavily. I've been clean for 2 and a half yrs and I haven't self harmed in 6 months so this tattoo means a lot to me. The colors represent self harm, addiction, and suicide awareness. The semi colon represents where I could have ended my life but I didn't. I chose to fight for myself.Semicolon for suicide awareness My Suicide memorial tattoo with the semi colon body for my friend KC SkivaletoSuicide hotline: 1-800-273-8255(24 hours)My new tattoo, for suicide awareness.
