At 15, I was committed into a mental health facility for the 5th time for suicidal thoughts. They played this song, but before they did, they asked me to close my eyes and imagine my funeral. To imagine all of my loved ones with this song playing in the background. Out of all the therapy, all the medications, this song is what saved me. That group saved me. Thank you.
Praise God! The Lord Jesus Christ saved you! Remember that He died for you, your life is so precious to waste in hell. I pray and hope that the Lord will impress upon you that you need Him forever.❤❤❤❤❤
I was sent to a “behavioral health clinic “ where I was to get help for having suicidal thoughts. If what they were giving was supposed to help they missed the mark. I spent maybe 2 minutes with a psychiatrist and that was it
That’s one thing I like about social media if you need to vent there is always someone awake it’s help the that feeling of the world just forgetting about you away Hope fully you find someone to chat with
When I have suicidal thoughts, I always come onto UA-cam and listen to this song first before I do anything serious. This song has saved me so many times.
Time doesn't heal the wound. But it does cushion the blow. As is goes by, we learn to accept what has happened and we realize that that person would want us to live our life to the fullest because there's obviously not enough time. Lost my father a few months ago and it felt nearly impossible to "move on" from it. I'll never "move on", but I will take this pain and turn it into happiness because that is what they would want us to do. My father wanted us to see him happy and healthy and that's how I want people to see me. Full of Life. Find your successes in their honor. I hope this helps someone
The very first time I heard this song I was alone on the three hour trip home from my son's funeral...he passed from depression in 2009. It holds a very special place in my heart. I can only listen to it a couple times a year. My heart goes out to all those who have lost someone so dear.❤
you are right i have it and tried to hurt myself but i got the help i needed ive lost many people from drugs and suicide but im glad people can share how they feel thank you
I beat it by staying close to God. It was not a quick spring back but eventually I did praise the Lord and ever since I only got depressed for several days and soon spring back again.. nothing major like a prolonged depression God-forbid. It was horrible by all means. Day after day .. I couldn't tell who was lifeless me or my bed!! Tears won't stop shedding.. it was a difficult time .. sure wished if Heaven would've ended me cuz I couldn't do it for it was a sin so decided to stay the way I was until He pulled me thru. Love you, Lord. We really are not much without You. 💗
i have it bad i she to cut luckily stopped u cant see much anymore cause it tanned surprisingly i also have really bad axiety and idk why this is gods plan for me i’m hopeful still even tho i wanna lunch my stepdad in his jaw
This saved my life 5 years ago. I was in a bad place at that time and was constantly thinking about suicide. When I first heard this song, it was like a miracle. When I decided to try and get better from my depression, I listened to this song everyday. I haven't listened to it in years... It makes me cry knowing that this is the song that saved my life.
Meg Awacflr I've listened to this song ever day since my cousin shot him self it's saved me from wanting to do the same so I don't have to deal with the guilt and remorse but I've decided I can get through this. It only happened 3 weeks ago so I guess I was just grieving

same here it stopped me long enough to think maybe I should try to keep pushing forward I have survived a couple attempts and deal with the struggle of contemplation but keep the things that make life worth living a better life near I couldn't imagine my siblings finding me after succeeding that thought has kept me from sltrying my wrist a few times
Don't know why but upon hearing this song for the first time I really burst into tears.. sending hugs for those who are trying and fighting silent battles..
Life is worth the fight I am 68 years old I keep fighting this battle I have lost three children in my life I lost both my parents at a young age I lost a grandson that was only 18 years old he had cancer I lost a sister-in-law but I keep fighting this battle because I want to see my loved ones one day so you have to keep fighting it's all worth it
I wish everyone in the comments section could just give each other a hug because sometimes whenever I feel lonely and sad I go through the comments section and realize I am not alone.❤️
My 21 year old daughter took her life in October 2020. I found her and still can't fathom why or how this happened. All I can say is hug your kids daily and tell them you love them as often as you can.
I’m so very sorry that this happen ended in your lives. If you see this message please tell me one of your favorite things about your children’s lives with you.
@@patriciajennings7401 we were best friends with a bond that was indescribable. We sang together all the time. She was my first true love and my first baby ♥️
Hang on! I struggled with depression from 12 until 21 or so. It didn't seem like I would overcome it, but I did and I love my life right now. Hang on. It will get better, I promise!
This is how I feel. I am suffering from a physical illness that I feel in my heart and soul I will not get better and I cannot keep suffering in pain 24/7z it is hard to bear any longer. I feel so alone, more than I have ever and suffered in such pain in my life. Rascal flatts you really hit home with ur songs. All of them. Thank you for them
Tara, I am thinking about you...🙏 So sorry you are suffering...just know I care. If thoughts and words have power, may these words be the catalyst for your complete healing...💚
I am also suffering from an illness that there is no real cure for. I'm sorry you have to live this way. Just keep trying to hang on please. I know it's hard to do, but you are loved ❤❤❤❤🎉
Remember, you are never alone in your loneliness. There are so many of us who feel disconnected, isolated, and alone in a crowd to use that phrase. Media hype makes us think that eveyone's having a party but us. It's not so. If you are home alone or feeling alone in a crowd, there are 1,000s of others just like you. God bless you truly.
Happy Fathers Day to my dad, who committed suicide in February 2011. I was 13. I am now 18 and have graduated high school and have made so many achievements that he would have been so proud of. I love you daddy
ashleighBeeBee123 My heart hurts to hear things like this. Please remember we all have demons and troubles. Believe me when I tell you depression and anxiety can convince even the strongest of people that life is too much at times. It is sad that someone can be so tormented internally that they could give up experiencing those beautiful moments as a parent. My son just graduated in May, it was a huge moment of joy, pride, and sadness that my baby was growing up. I know your dad watched with pride from heaven, because a parent's love is too strong to let even death keep them from loving you. Keep on living life beautiful girl, live it full and strong, happy and long. Live the life your daddy would have loved watching you live because he's still watching, but he has the company of your heavenly father now. You sound like a beautiful, strong young woman with a bright future. Live life for you and your daddy. Lots of love sweetie.
Jonghyun you did so well, I hope no one forgets you. You dought untill your last breath, it shoudn't have been that way. You deserved so much more and you have it now. I hope that any other idol, or person for that matter, that is struggling like you didcan find the peace that you have been searching for. I know you don't want me to cry, and I said I'd let you go, but I still cry; not for the fact that I will never see you again, but for the pain you had to feel. I'm sorry you had to suffer Jonghyun, we will never forget you.
This was played at one of my best friend's funerals this past Saturday, he was 19. He never had anything other than a smile on his face, it's crazy what a smile can hide. This song had everyone in tears when it started playing. Rest in peace, Sam. I love you -Keylee
I'm really sorry for your loss. And you are right. Somehow people know how to act around others and you won't know what really goes on until it's too late. I just wish they would tell someone about the problems they have. There is always a way out other than killing themselves. Poor souls are just to desperate to see it.
I just lost my girlfriend, I miss her so much. I couldn’t even say my goodbyes at the hospital. I mean I saw her when they transported her body to the mortuary but it’s just not the same. I couldn’t be at the hospital due to this whole Covid 19 bullshit. She suffered for 3 weeks with not a loved one by her side. I’m glad you’re at peace baby I miss you ❤️
This songs help me cry about my grandma who passed away, August 19, 2015 at 2:02 in the morning. What I want to say is that people like me who are still grieving just know that he or she is not suffering anymore. Their worries have floated softly and I'm pretty sure they would want you not to be sad but to be happy! And I'm only eleven but live life to the fullest while you still can. This generation is so messed up that it makes me regret even being born at times but then I realize that I'm a lucky little girl....- I hope you learn and live off of this paragraph because all i'm trying to say is that its not about the petty or dumb things in life. Its about cherishing every second of it.
Dai'Chele Stephens so sorry to hear about your lost. My dad passed away I miss him so much I would give anything to have him hear hearing this song really makes me think of him.
I sang this song every day for about 2 years... When I was at my worst and everyday it kept me from taking my life because I'd sing this and made myself feel how my family would feel if I ended things... Now I'm getting to the point where I can manage my depression, because saying I'm getting over it isn't true.. Saying I needed help was probably the hardest thing ive ever done in my life but if I didn't I wouldn't be here today... Thank you rascal flatts for making this song..
Travis Ledford I hope that this is worth reading.. I've attempted to take my own life about 4-5 times. But my brother always seemed to know I wasn't okay and my parents would be running up the stairs to the bathroom knocking on the door trying to get in. They almost busted the door down once. The best thing I've ever done in my life was get help. I owe my life to my brother because if it wasn't for him always having that feeling that I wasn't okay when ever I did something I wouldn't be here. My mom grandma and sister have helped me stay on the track and my niece and nephew have also made an impact. They are my reason for staying most days. So please when ever you are feeling like there's no reason to stay and nothing can make you happy anymore. Go out and look for that one thing. Leaving school took away stress which made me self harm. Now I have my GED and life isn't so bad. There's days where i still want to hurt myself and where I don't want to go on anymore, but then I think to myself if it wasn't worth it then it's still not worth it now. I don't know how old you are or if your parents (if you still live with them and are underage) will agree to it or sign for it. Where ever you want to hurt yourself (if you do) get a tattoo. I always cut on my thighs. Now I have a tattoo on my left thigh of a flower with the saying "this world can be ugly, but isn't it beautiful" I chose that because you can see my scars on my legs and it's not attractive, but it brings a whole new meaning to my tattoo then people would think. My next tattoo is going to be 8-10 butterflies. One for each reason to keep going. There's always a reason to keep going, sometimes you just have to look for it. I hope the best for you and that you find happiness in your life. Please don't try to take your life again, because if none of that helped know that it didn't work for a reason (I don't believe in god or anything) but I do believe that things happen for a reason and I also believe in fate. You're still here for a reason that reason probably hasn't made itself known yet but it will in time.
Missing a loved one who died unexpectedly is the worst possible pain any human being can go through. I lost my brother unexpectedly a little over a year ago, and I constantly question myself. "What could I have done?" So. This song kind of hits home for me 💔
+Kyla Smith man, I have two younger siblings one's still a baby and ones a year younger than me, I don't know what I would do if they died... I am very sorry for your loss...it just be very hard
I lost my friend this year to suicide. This song is perfect for how I felt after he died. He was 16 years old and it happened so suddenly and broke my heart. He was amazingly talented and had a bunch of great and loving friends. We all miss him everyday and I wish so much that I had known just how much he was hurting and could have helped. He was in so much pain and wish that he never had to suffer. I miss you Nick, you gave us all the chance to meet and be friends with an amazing guy who changed the way in which we value life. That you for that gift. And I hope he somehow knows that I wouldn't trade knowing him for any amount of heartbreak. I will love and remember you forever. 27/04/2016
jasmine fernandez i listen to this alot. I think of suicide DAILY. Tried many times to no avail. Im so fucking sad all the time. Only 2 people would miss me. I try so hard...always failing. Cant keep living this life.
My Daddy killed himself when I was a little girl.... I wish I could of helped him but i was too young.... I did not know how he felt.... I didn't understand. ... 😢 I love Him soooo much .... I miss Him soooo much.... He's been gone for 22 years now but it still hurts soooo much... I love you Daddy. .. always have. .. always will 😢😢😢
He was probably struggling. But he took the easy way out and no matter what that is not the right way. I know the pain of losing a parent as a young girl but never let that overwhelm you to the point where you can’t hold on anymore. Ever.
This song hurts me so much to listen to. But I feel like I have to hear it... Rest In Peace Wilder. My best fucking friend. 15 is too young to leave. I get why you did it. But damnit you took a huge part of me with you... 💔
Depression is not a joke. like i am very okay outside, i get along with my family and my friends but whenever that im alone, im so sad, sometimes i think of suicide, i told my mom that im not okay, im depressed and she doesnt believe me.. and that hurt the most. but i knew im not alone, someone up there is watching me, guiding me and protecting me, Jesus will be always there in our side. So to those experiencing depression, problems, anxiety, stressed. remember that Jesus is there. Just keep fighting and win the fight. God bless us all.
I'm dedicating this song to my twin sister. She was a beautiful kind soul who helped 10 homeless people in her short life, she committed suicide at the age of 9 because she was bullied I used to hide behind her I was her shadow I'm 13 now and made friends and helped homeless people and before she died I thought that I wouldn't live without her, sissy I'm strong and I thought you were too... I hope your proud of me for actually making friends and I hope that you my sis are happy to be my sister! Happy birthday sis...
I'm so sorry for all your pain I suffer from depression I have been hospitalized over 160 times since age 9 and it's hard you don't know till you feel that pain it hurts bad and sometimes so bad we don't want it anymore I know now I won't give up till my times up I will over come and hopefully be happy in life again
I'm still very sorry for you loss as I have lost a brother to suicide also and then my other sibling my brother a few months ago it is so very hard to do with the pain in how to cope you have to go out your own pace don't want no one tell you what you should or should not be doing or feeling is your heart that has to do with this sweetie, I go by the motto take one day at a time😳🕇
I'm so deeply sorry. prayers for your healing. I list my sister 4 years ago and I still feel the pain and emptiness. She has sent signs that have helped. They do send signs and come in your dreams.❤
Cindy Marrujo Yes...a pain like no other. Lost my grandparents but I never knew there could be deeper sffering. Guess it's the childhood bonding brought on by sharing beds, clothes, dreams, crushes....too much to forget.😢
I just found this song and it describes my friend perfectly. He was one of my best friends. My first kiss and he shot himself at only 16. A wonderful athlete and he played with passion in every sport he did.I'll miss him forever and I don't think any amount of time will heal this empty hole in my heart.
Lord I say their names out loud all the time. Somehow I know God understands. Somehow I just know, grace was waiting for them, even at their most desperate moment…🙏🏻❤️
This song saved me from suicide, twice...September 6th, and December 21st, 2013. I remember just about to take the pills, and drink it down with bleach, when this song came to mind....so I listened to it and bawled my eyes out.....just thinking....Rascal Flatts has made an impact in my life that none other has done before....gotten me out of my darkest moments in life....I wouldn't be here today without them...my dream is one day to tell them my story and thank them personally for all that they do.
Been there many times, but do not do it. You are too beautiful, and it would only make me wonder why. I am in that place at the moment, but some how I always find a way through.
I have been there... today I was thinkin bout it because my great great grandma just passed to day at 90. girl you are rlly pretty and God has a plan for you that doesn't envollve killin ur self!
This song helps you & me and other suicide people get through our tough time. next time you wanna play this song again. #YouCanSurvive #youcandoit #youcandothis #youcandoitwecanhelp
My heart hurts for all of the people suffering right now from losing someone from suicide or struggling with depression. I'm sending you a hug and love so that you know you're not alone. Turn all of your cares over to God when the weight feels too heavy to carry. If you don't believe in God, then focus on the beauty of the simple things in life that you get to witness, like a beautiful sunset or the birds singing. Please hold on because without you the world would be a sadder place. You are loved. ♥
Because you and the world only saw the outside.. not the inside. It's an internal struggle that only you and God knows. Fame, fortune, cars, houses, mean nothing when your in pain inside. Look at Robin Williams. No one really knows the pain inside someone elses head 💞💞
The only thing anyone can do, is always show support to one another. Shows those who suffer from depression and other mental health issues that they matter. Show love, listen to what they, watch how they act. I know the signs aren't always easy to see but just let them know that you do care. You never know you might help safe a life from suicide.
Don't give up. I have been there too, and with the help of my faith I got through. Now looking back on those time that I wanted to end it I am so glad I didn't. Please, please don't give up, one day at a time...
Had one of my oldest dearest friends funeral today after deciding he had enough although he masked and told us he was finally on top of things , the guilt you feel is unreal when you wonder what if .. I called everyday , did I listen enough did I miss the signs anyway the memories will always be treasured and he was a true legend and you know what they say LegendsNeverDie Rest Easy my friend
Ill be honest your right you will never be the same its been 7yrs since i lost my wife an i struggle each day cause only those who have been through a suicide can understand what we feel. Time does not heal wounds i have a girlfriend now but she doesnt understand why i cry so much. I cry cause the pain an anger has to come out if not it would destroy me. Im sorry for your loss..
Lost my baby brother in 2014 lost my mom in 2017 lost my cousin this year 2019..i miss them all so much.. Everytime I listen to this song makes me think of them
My prayers are with all of you who relate to this song. I cannot imagine losing someone this way. And to those of you who feel like life "isn't worth the fight", you're in my prayers too, and I just want you to know, that bad times happen and I'm sure you've noticed that part already, but many good times will happen as well. I've helped talk two of my closest friends out of taking their own lives..... sometimes it's hard to see the light, I know, I once had trouble myself. But those difficult things that I went through, they helped build the foundation of my faith, the foundation of realizing that I have a purpose, and the foundation of knowing that no matter how dark things seem, bad times don't last forever. I struggle with depression, OCD and Hypochondria every now and then. But they don't keep their grasp on me. Life and Love is worth more than anything else in this world and even if you don't know it, even if you don't feel it, you are LOVED. I promise you. By me, and whether or not you believe, by God also. You were not put here without purpose..... you were not put here to only see the bad. I promise things can turn around and get better. You only have to not give up. My life got better when I turned to God. I hope, if you haven't, that YOU find His love and peace, too. I may not know what my purpose is yet, but I know that I am not without it. I may not know you, but I KNOW you can get better. There isn't a doubt within my heart, mind or soul. God bless you, you guys. If you need to talk, fair warning, I may not always know what to say but I'm willing to listen, if you want to send me a message or an email anytime. @ megantfelton@yahoo.com
I llistened to this album so many times in 2010-11, and lost my father in 2012. Never ceases to amaze me the power songs have to transport you back to a certain time in your life, this one being particularly poignant almost 8 years later.
If you are listining to this song and it remindes you of a loved one that is no longer here i am deeply sorry but just remeber that person is in heaven and looking down on you right now and smiling i promise!! Now for whoever sees this and is thinking about ending their owen life you need to stop please this world is hard but suicid is not the answer and you are loved and you mean alot to someone espcialy god and he loves you and also this world isn't that bad i mean sure it has its evil times but also the good and beautiful and i have seen and been through alot of both but mostly evil cause i was once bullied mentaly and physicaly and god he was there for me and still is and i have to say this is a very beautiful world and you have a important part in it you could change the world for good or influence someone that will, the possibilities are endless and so amazing so don't focuse on the bad let that flow right over you and let god and his angels take care of it and look at the good and the future and work to make it better even when you hit rock bottum there is always hope for good i promise you that i have seen it and i will tell you right now if i could i would love to live here on earth forever and i would never get tired of it so if you are reading this please keep fighting and dreaming life is deffinantly worth fighting for i promise and i would hate for you to leave in the middle of your beautiful song cause even though i do not know you i care and i want you to keep fighting never give up no matter what!!!!!! And i hope you are having a blessed day and may God bless you and be with you and your loved ones :-)
To whoever is reading this/ breathing You matter to so many people. Even though you may feel alone your not. Yesterday I went to a funeral for my cousin that killed himself. I just with I got to tell him that I care and love him. You matter and don’t forget that. I love you
Lost a childhood friend today. As we grew together. He Lost his brother in high-school to a car accident and was never the same since. He never knew how much he gave and made those feel being in his presence. Even years after we moved on from the town we grew up. Knowing the memory you left was always positive. His wasn't. Love you dude. We all loved you Kyle.
I've lost many friends to the darkness of mental illness and loneliness. I only wish they could have understood how much their friends, families, and I loved and cared for them. Life drags people apart from each other, but bonds of the heart withstand the distance. If they had truly understood how important they were to so many people, I can't help but hope that it might have been easier for them to let their songs play on. I'll play their songs for them as parts of mine for as long as I live.
Rest in peace my angel Jonghyun. It’s nearly going to be 6 months and not a day has gone past without thinking of you. My heart still aches and I cry every night because I miss you so badly but I’ll try to be strong and carry on. Rest easy my love ❤️
Any Sundowner fans around ? This song is dedicated to a wonderful singer who fought depression and lost . Darrell Turner was and still is loved and admired by all who knew him ! I still think of him and long for the days I spent enjoying his entertaining ways !
What a beautiful song and what moving lyrics. This song will be played at the funeral of my soul mate who tragically passed away a week ago. Until we meet again, sweet angel.
Im 20, finished high school 2 years ago, and today we just lost our 4th classmate to suicide, and this one hit home, she lived down the road and during middle school she and her sister and brother would spend countless days at my house...may they all RIP...😞
This song reminds me of so many I lost in the 2010’s. Namely, my high school crush, a guy who inspired me, and my mother. Lost all three of them between 2011-2014. All 3 died...not of old age. My crush was only 22. Enjoy every day you get with your loved ones! Be strong!
Present times have affected so many. We need so much reaching out to each other. Many people having a hard time right now. Many can’t see the forest for the trees of the deep deception taking place. 🙏
This is so true, god only knows everything and I trust in him for the right reasons but lately I haven’t been feeling myself and missing loved ones isn’t helping much either
Miss Little Vixen maybe try talking to a trusted adult in your family. Or a counselor at school or a teacher you trust. You’re not alone and you can get help ♥️
I found this song 6 years ago after my best friend/ sister committed suicide. She was only 17. In high school she was the Homecoming queen, played varsity football (one hell of a player and the only girl on a team of all guys), and graduated early at only 16. She was one of the funniest, beautiful, and most outgoing people you could ever meet. We always said we were going to go to college together and finish together. We made it one semester. Even now 6 years later it still hurts, i don’t think it’s a pain that will ever go away. I still wonder what her life would’ve been like had she stayed. We haven’t forgotten about you babygirl, we love and miss you Kyla 🖤
“Now in my mind I keep you frozen as a seventeen year old” That line broke me, my cousin passed away about a year ago, killed actually... my heart is still healing, he was my best friend I grew up with him and he passed a few months before his 18th birthday.. my sweet boy how I miss you... Losing someone is the hardest thing to have to try to understand.. knowing I’ll never see him again hurts the most.
Jongyhyun it’ll be 3 months on the 18th of March that you took your life.. it still feels like yesterday I woke up to the news.. I wish you could have seen how much everyone loved you..we miss you 수고했어요 종현 You did well Jonghyun #5hineeforever
Goosebumps while listening to this song. I can't help but think of all the broken people around me. Have I been really proactive in sharing the love of God to them or will I wait for another person to "leave the stage at the middle of the song"? Rascal Flatts had written a beautiful song.
6 years since my best friend committed Suicide.. Though she was a lot older she was more of a sister to me.. She was a blessing that God sent.. She gained her wings after battling depression.. Rest in Paradise sweet angel.. I'll see you one day! Gone but never forgotten.
Guys, Depression is no laughing matter, and yes, I am making sound like an urgent emergency, because We have got to prevent this, cause I am urgently praying for people who are on the edge right now!!!!!! Please, guys, use every bit of Your strength to help keep a person in need alive!
I don't know how long i can take before i go 😞 pain is too much and feel of lonelines and depression has take place in my life and i can't see anyway out of here 😞 i really suffer every day and even my family don't realize how much i suffer. I hope that no one have to go trought all that depression what many of us have to strugle averyday
Makes me think of my 16 year old brother , who left in 1994. I was 10 , and it sums up life since he has been gone. I've battled my demons , i stayed , and i wish he could have too.
I miss my dad I lost him to cancer 6-23-19 a couple days after my birthday I miss him but I have to be strong because that’s what he would want I struggle with depression and anxiety bad my brother just went to jail a month ago I miss them both I will see my dad one day and give him a big hug my brother will get married one day and so will I and my dad won’t be here to walk me down the aisle but if you’re reading this be strong everyone I love you!
Jonghyun, I can't help but think of you, my beloved inspiration, my reason to reach my goals and dreams. You were the person who inspired me to try harder even when I'm sad or depressed. You gave us all your love, your smile, your voice, your pain and tears and for that I will stay thankful for the rest of my life. When I was depressed and bad thoughts came to my mind, you were the sun that pushed the storm clouds away, you were the reason I pushed my boat of dreams further into the ocean. I love you, I miss you Rest In Paradise my angel
I'd like to dedicate this song to someone whom felt like a big brother to me for quite awhile,that attempted to take his own life on the 18th of September last night..I wish we could have done more to save you..I wish we wouldn't have had to pull the plug...I miss you big brother..Who told you life..wasn't worth the fight..
just lost my daughter of 3 beautiful little girls to suicide 3 weeks ago, this song is so true, only God knows all the answers..momma misses you sooooo much
"This old world really aint that bad a place" whenever dark thoughts cloud my heart I hold onto thst hopeful part of the song. If one day I'm gone, they will ask why and if there's something they could've said or done and the answer would be yes.
"Oh, God only knows what went wrong." Rest in Paradise Cameron, I love you & I miss you so much. You were my first celebrity crush, and my childhood. We miss you. ❤
I committed 2 years ago and now listening to this song makes me so sad about the people that I could’ve hurt, I love my family and friends so very much and now I can’t imagine what life for them would be like if my attempts worked, I realized that I have so much to lose and I want to live life until I’m old and grey, I want to live with my future spouse until we pass together, I want to live long enough to see my great great grandchildren. Life is worth the fight. Every second is worth living. Life is worth everything❤️
R.I.P Johnny. I knew you since 3rd grade. You were my best friend. In 6th Grade we did the Morning Announcements together every day. I lost you, and two years ago we reunited. We never got together. The day I finally decided I was gonna invite you over I looked online to hear that you had taken your life...and I sit alone always asking myself could i have done anything....we miss you johnny. We always will.
I just lost my best friend to stage 4 cancer today, i miss her sm, this song explains my emotions better than i can because i feel lost, lost without a friend to hold and pray for
I never met u grandpa. My parents tell me u have always wanted a grand daughter. Here I am! I hope u can hear me. I’m 13 now, I’m doing pretty good in school and I try to spend time with family as much as possible. U would be so proud of Brandon and Brad. We all miss u so much. Whenever I feel like giving up on something I think of u because It makes me think u would be proud. I hope heaven is taking good care of u. I love u Grandpa Joe❤️

At 15, I was committed into a mental health facility for the 5th time for suicidal thoughts. They played this song, but before they did, they asked me to close my eyes and imagine my funeral. To imagine all of my loved ones with this song playing in the background. Out of all the therapy, all the medications, this song is what saved me. That group saved me. Thank you.
Praise God! The Lord Jesus Christ saved you! Remember that He died for you, your life is so precious to waste in hell. I pray and hope that the Lord will impress upon you that you need Him forever.❤❤❤❤❤
I'm sure so many are glad you're still here, just keep fighting through, you can do it!!!! 💖
I was sent to a “behavioral health clinic “ where I was to get help for having suicidal thoughts. If what they were giving was supposed to help they missed the mark. I spent maybe 2 minutes with a psychiatrist and that was it
always about you huh?
That’s one thing I like about social media if you need to vent there is always someone awake it’s help the that feeling of the world just forgetting about you away Hope fully you find someone to chat with
When I have suicidal thoughts, I always come onto UA-cam and listen to this song first before I do anything serious. This song has saved me so many times.
+LovelyMNGurl02 Stay strong.
+LovelyMNGurl02
i feel you :(
+LovelyMNGurl02 You're not alone with those kinds of thoughts.. this is the first I've heard this song and it's so touching. Stay YOU!
my life story 😓
wow that's strength. music is powerful
Whoever said time heals all wounds has never lost a piece of their heart; take all the time you need ❤
agree time dose not heal it only makes it easyer to get by but im still crushed
Ruby kiikgkiikf
Time doesn't heal the wound. But it does cushion the blow. As is goes by, we learn to accept what has happened and we realize that that person would want us to live our life to the fullest because there's obviously not enough time. Lost my father a few months ago and it felt nearly impossible to "move on" from it. I'll never "move on", but I will take this pain and turn it into happiness because that is what they would want us to do. My father wanted us to see him happy and healthy and that's how I want people to see me. Full of Life. Find your successes in their honor. I hope this helps someone
I am. It’s all I can do. 💔😔
Ruby So true. I lost my sister in April of last year and it's still a everyday struggle here without her. Be praying for you
This song has saved me multiple times...when my depression takes me to that darkest of place. I don’t want my loved ones wondering why
The very first time I heard this song I was alone on the three hour trip home from my son's funeral...he passed from depression in 2009. It holds a very special place in my heart. I can only listen to it a couple times a year. My heart goes out to all those who have lost someone so dear.❤

Depression is no joking matter, and I’m praying for everyone who has anything to do with it.
you are right i have it and tried to hurt myself but i got the help i needed ive lost many people from drugs and suicide but im glad people can share how they feel thank you
I beat it by staying close to God. It was not a quick spring back but eventually I did praise the Lord and ever since I only got depressed for several days and soon spring back again.. nothing major like a prolonged depression God-forbid. It was horrible by all means. Day after day .. I couldn't tell who was lifeless me or my bed!! Tears won't stop shedding.. it was a difficult time .. sure wished if Heaven would've ended me cuz I couldn't do it for it was a sin so decided to stay the way I was until He pulled me thru. Love you, Lord. We really are not much without You. 💗
Feeling guilty for absolutely no God damn reason.....I dont mind who walks all over me, as long as they're happy and successful......
Thank you.
i have it bad i she to cut luckily stopped u cant see much anymore cause it tanned surprisingly i also have really bad axiety and idk why this is gods plan for me i’m hopeful still even tho i wanna lunch my stepdad in his jaw
This saved my life 5 years ago. I was in a bad place at that time and was constantly thinking about suicide. When I first heard this song, it was like a miracle. When I decided to try and get better from my depression, I listened to this song everyday. I haven't listened to it in years... It makes me cry knowing that this is the song that saved my life.
Meg Awacflr I've listened to this song ever day since my cousin shot him self it's saved me from wanting to do the same so I don't have to deal with the guilt and remorse but I've decided I can get through this. It only happened 3 weeks ago so I guess I was just grieving

Kaylee P I'm sorry for your loss. Stay strong lovely
Meg Awacflr thanks
same here it stopped me long enough to think maybe I should try to keep pushing forward I have survived a couple attempts and deal with the struggle of contemplation but keep the things that make life worth living a better life near I couldn't imagine my siblings finding me after succeeding that thought has kept me from sltrying my wrist a few times
Don't know why but upon hearing this song for the first time I really burst into tears.. sending hugs for those who are trying and fighting silent battles..
Nobody understands depression unless you've had it. That sad feeling you get once in a while is not even close
Well said, Charles. There is nothing like it. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Very true I have it and then there's the suicidal thaught it's really bad
I've been dealing with my depression and anxiety disorder since i was in middle school.
Cathy Creamer I've been dealing with it since I was 10 I only had one person there for me
charles allen my parents just divorced I'm 12 I heard this song after I moved and I cried
“Oh, but I do have one burning question
Who told you life wasn’t worth the fight”
The thoughts that run through my head daily 💔
Emma Stevenson thank u
Life is worth the fight I am 68 years old I keep fighting this battle I have lost three children in my life I lost both my parents at a young age I lost a grandson that was only 18 years old he had cancer I lost a sister-in-law but I keep fighting this battle because I want to see my loved ones one day so you have to keep fighting it's all worth it
Sometimes the question isn’t why do it but why not
So do I.
I wish everyone in the comments section could just give each other a hug because sometimes whenever I feel lonely and sad I go through the comments section and realize I am not alone.❤️
Darby Weese ❤️❤️❤️
That's beautiful. I feel the same way. So I am giving you a virtual hug. :) You are never alone. i promise.
Thank you ❤️
💕
Ikr, I do the same thing
Love to my son who has been gone almost a year. I miss him so much. My heart aches every day. Hugs to everyone hurting.
Awww, so sorry about your loss Tammy, my deep and sincere condolences, how have you been?
❤
I am so sorry.😢
My 21 year old daughter took her life in October 2020. I found her and still can't fathom why or how this happened. All I can say is hug your kids daily and tell them you love them as often as you can.
I also lost my Katy at 24 and I found her too. No words, no way of understanding, no answers and it is devastating 💔
I’m so very sorry that this happen ended in your lives. If you see this message please tell me one of your favorite things about your children’s lives with you.
@@patriciajennings7401 we were best friends with a bond that was indescribable. We sang together all the time. She was my first true love and my first baby ♥️
I lost my daughter recently @ 21 yrs old as well. No idea why. Missing her greatly. Big loss to us. She meant the world to me
@@patriciajennings7401 I loved my daughter's laugh and her creativity, her singing
The sad thing is that when we are sad, we make no sense but the ones who are also sad, understand what we are saying 😔
ive struggled with depression since 16 didnt think id make it past 17 . im 22 now and still fighting depression
who is it? You’re worth it❤️! Fight on
Hang on! I struggled with depression from 12 until 21 or so. It didn't seem like I would overcome it, but I did and I love my life right now. Hang on. It will get better, I promise!
Keep fighting the world needs you in it
You are not alone my friend ... DO NOT give up!!!
Go on you amazing warrior!! I believe in you don't give in! 💖💖💖
This is how I feel. I am suffering from a physical illness that I feel in my heart and soul I will not get better and I cannot keep suffering in pain 24/7z it is hard to bear any longer. I feel so alone, more than I have ever and suffered in such pain in my life. Rascal flatts you really hit home with ur songs. All of them. Thank you for them
Tara, I am thinking about you...🙏
So sorry you are suffering...just know I care.
If thoughts and words have power, may these words be the catalyst for your complete healing...💚
I am also suffering from an illness that there is no real cure for. I'm sorry you have to live this way. Just keep trying to hang on please. I know it's hard to do, but you are loved ❤❤❤❤🎉
Remember, you are never alone in your loneliness. There are so many of us who feel disconnected, isolated, and alone in a crowd to use that phrase. Media hype makes us think that eveyone's having a party but us. It's not so. If you are home alone or feeling alone in a crowd, there are 1,000s of others just like you. God bless you truly.

Happy Fathers Day to my dad, who committed suicide in February 2011. I was 13. I am now 18 and have graduated high school and have made so many achievements that he would have been so proud of. I love you daddy
Happy fathers day to him. I lost my dad at 13 as well.. im now 19
ashleighBeeBee123 no. he passed from other stuff
Gary Dempsey
well, rest in peace to him and I am sorry for your loss.
My dad committed suicide December 2010 I was 18 and it still hasn't gotten easier. I know your pain.
ashleighBeeBee123 My heart hurts to hear things like this. Please remember we all have demons and troubles. Believe me when I tell you depression and anxiety can convince even the strongest of people that life is too much at times. It is sad that someone can be so tormented internally that they could give up experiencing those beautiful moments as a parent. My son just graduated in May, it was a huge moment of joy, pride, and sadness that my baby was growing up. I know your dad watched with pride from heaven, because a parent's love is too strong to let even death keep them from loving you. Keep on living life beautiful girl, live it full and strong, happy and long. Live the life your daddy would have loved watching you live because he's still watching, but he has the company of your heavenly father now. You sound like a beautiful, strong young woman with a bright future. Live life for you and your daddy. Lots of love sweetie.
I miss you Jonghyun. A star that shined brightly on stage for 10 years, now a star of the skies❤️💔
Alex J :(( poor baby. he’s happy in the clouds now
Jonghyun you did so well, I hope no one forgets you. You dought untill your last breath, it shoudn't have been that way. You deserved so much more and you have it now. I hope that any other idol, or person for that matter, that is struggling like you didcan find the peace that you have been searching for. I know you don't want me to cry, and I said I'd let you go, but I still cry; not for the fact that I will never see you again, but for the pain you had to feel. I'm sorry you had to suffer Jonghyun, we will never forget you.
The lost of a child is unbearable 😔 I am so sorry John 😔 daddy miss you so much 😔 I will lay u to rest soon my baby 😔 heaven gained another angel 😔
I'm so sorry for your loss🙏💔
I’m very sorry for your terrible grief and pain. I lost all 3 of my children. You never get over it.
I too lost my son suicide the.
09/01-21 ill never be the same.
I feel all your pain too
Rip sweet one
This was played at one of my best friend's funerals this past Saturday, he was 19. He never had anything other than a smile on his face, it's crazy what a smile can hide. This song had everyone in tears when it started playing. Rest in peace, Sam. I love you -Keylee
I'm really sorry for your loss. And you are right. Somehow people know how to act around others and you won't know what really goes on until it's too late. I just wish they would tell someone about the problems they have. There is always a way out other than killing themselves. Poor souls are just to desperate to see it.
Recently lost one of my close friends.. this song randomly came on and ahh. Gone but never forgotten beautiful 💛
i lost fake friends who never gave a damn about me either
i'm sorry for your lost
I have never heard this song until today - the lyrics really spoke to me about my long-loved and lost younger sister - I will always miss her! xoxox
I just lost my girlfriend, I miss her so much. I couldn’t even say my goodbyes at the hospital. I mean I saw her when they transported her body to the mortuary but it’s just not the same. I couldn’t be at the hospital due to this whole Covid 19 bullshit. She suffered for 3 weeks with not a loved one by her side. I’m glad you’re at peace baby I miss you ❤️
I’m so so sorry, if you ever need to talk remember people are here for you, god loves you and he has a plan
It is a hard thing to get through you need anything IAM to talk
Im so sorry for your loss many prayers
I'm so sorry. It really hurts. Nobody should have to have to go through that. 💔
What did she pass from and how old was she
This songs help me cry about my grandma who passed away, August 19, 2015 at 2:02 in the morning. What I want to say is that people like me who are still grieving just know that he or she is not suffering anymore. Their worries have floated softly and I'm pretty sure they would want you not to be sad but to be happy! And I'm only eleven but live life to the fullest while you still can. This generation is so messed up that it makes me regret even being born at times but then I realize that I'm a lucky little girl....- I hope you learn and live off of this paragraph because all i'm trying to say is that its not about the petty or dumb things in life. Its about cherishing every second of it.
huggingy
You sound a lot older than eleven. I'm 16, and this lifted me up. Thank you! Much love!
Well said man
Dai'Chele Stephens I'm 11 and I get it this doing reminds me of my great grandfather...
Dai'Chele Stephens so sorry to hear about your lost. My dad passed away I miss him so much I would give anything to have him hear hearing this song really makes me think of him.
Makes me think of my classmate,,,he took his life a few years after we graduated HS...great BBall player RIP BHAM
When the song says "17 year old" and that's exactly the age you are now.. makes it really hit home😕
i know right thats how old my cousin was when he ended his life
Parker Page I know the feeling I lost a friend to suicide and he just turned 17 a few days before it happened
Same, my cousin ended his life at the age of 17 as well..
Parker Page or when the one you love dies and their birthday comes up and they were supposed to turn 17..
My bestfriend killed himself 2and half weeks ago, he was 16
I Have been feeling this way lately but through praying every day in Still here and loving God one day at a time. PRAISE GOD
I sang this song every day for about 2 years... When I was at my worst and everyday it kept me from taking my life because I'd sing this and made myself feel how my family would feel if I ended things... Now I'm getting to the point where I can manage my depression, because saying I'm getting over it isn't true.. Saying I needed help was probably the hardest thing ive ever done in my life but if I didn't I wouldn't be here today... Thank you rascal flatts for making this song..
Travis Ledford I hope that this is worth reading.. I've attempted to take my own life about 4-5 times. But my brother always seemed to know I wasn't okay and my parents would be running up the stairs to the bathroom knocking on the door trying to get in. They almost busted the door down once. The best thing I've ever done in my life was get help. I owe my life to my brother because if it wasn't for him always having that feeling that I wasn't okay when ever I did something I wouldn't be here. My mom grandma and sister have helped me stay on the track and my niece and nephew have also made an impact. They are my reason for staying most days. So please when ever you are feeling like there's no reason to stay and nothing can make you happy anymore. Go out and look for that one thing. Leaving school took away stress which made me self harm. Now I have my GED and life isn't so bad. There's days where i still want to hurt myself and where I don't want to go on anymore, but then I think to myself if it wasn't worth it then it's still not worth it now. I don't know how old you are or if your parents (if you still live with them and are underage) will agree to it or sign for it. Where ever you want to hurt yourself (if you do) get a tattoo. I always cut on my thighs. Now I have a tattoo on my left thigh of a flower with the saying "this world can be ugly, but isn't it beautiful" I chose that because you can see my scars on my legs and it's not attractive, but it brings a whole new meaning to my tattoo then people would think. My next tattoo is going to be 8-10 butterflies. One for each reason to keep going. There's always a reason to keep going, sometimes you just have to look for it.
I hope the best for you and that you find happiness in your life. Please don't try to take your life again, because if none of that helped know that it didn't work for a reason (I don't believe in god or anything) but I do believe that things happen for a reason and I also believe in fate. You're still here for a reason that reason probably hasn't made itself known yet but it will in time.
Travis Ledford I have tried 9 times and I'm 12
I don't understand losing a loved one, but to anyone out there who has lost someone they love, God bless you, just know it's not your fault.
Missing a loved one who died unexpectedly is the worst possible pain any human being can go through. I lost my brother unexpectedly a little over a year ago, and I constantly question myself. "What could I have done?" So. This song kind of hits home for me 💔
+Kyla Smith man, I have two younger siblings one's still a baby and ones a year younger than me, I don't know what I would do if they died... I am very sorry for your loss...it just be very hard
Phantom 1234 Yes, it's extremely hard. It hits me harder some days, and others I'm perfectly fine. It's an everyday process.
it's so hard losing someone
Thank you 😔
I lost my friend this year to suicide. This song is perfect for how I felt after he died. He was 16 years old and it happened so suddenly and broke my heart. He was amazingly talented and had a bunch of great and loving friends. We all miss him everyday and I wish so much that I had known just how much he was hurting and could have helped. He was in so much pain and wish that he never had to suffer. I miss you Nick, you gave us all the chance to meet and be friends with an amazing guy who changed the way in which we value life. That you for that gift. And I hope he somehow knows that I wouldn't trade knowing him for any amount of heartbreak. I will love and remember you forever. 27/04/2016
I too lost my best friend she was 15 and my world and it’s already been 2 weeks. I cry everyday

I'm losing my brother in law on a freck Fall
I lost his sister 7 years ago
Now him
jasmine fernandez i listen to this alot. I think of suicide DAILY. Tried many times to no avail. Im so fucking sad all the time. Only 2 people would miss me. I try so hard...always failing. Cant keep living this life.
i know how u feel i lost a friend in 2011 she was my best friend. and she was 16yrs old we got in a fight and she killed herself
My dad committed suicide when I was 12. This song perfectly describes the way I've always felt about it. It's been 19 years!
My Daddy killed himself when I was a little girl.... I wish I could of helped him but i was too young.... I did not know how he felt.... I didn't understand. ... 😢 I love Him soooo much .... I miss Him soooo much.... He's been gone for 22 years now but it still hurts soooo much... I love you Daddy. .. always have. .. always will 😢😢😢
He was probably struggling. But he took the easy way out and no matter what that is not the right way. I know the pain of losing a parent as a young girl but never let that overwhelm you to the point where you can’t hold on anymore. Ever.
🥺🥺🥺
Same for me, i feel you, Im with you
@@929yiyi4 I agree with u. I just wish I could have helped him... but I was too young... I didn't no what he was going through. ... 😢
My dad killed himself when I was ten, 22 years ago also. You’re not alone. You are very strong ❤️
daddy you have been gone for 5 years and i still cry everynight . 😔 love you dad rip 💙👼
This song hurts me so much to listen to. But I feel like I have to hear it...
Rest In Peace Wilder. My best fucking friend. 15 is too young to leave. I get why you did it. But damnit you took a huge part of me with you... 💔
Belle Libitzki I’m sorry for your loss 😢
Oh honey I'm so sorry and I know that when people say they are sorry it makes you feel worse but if you need to vent talk to me. Okay?
My best friend killed himself yesterday and he was 15 too
i lost my bestfriend the closest friend I ever had to suicide in a very very violent way December 7th 2011
15 HOLY SWEET MOTHER OF MERCY.......R.I.P..
I love this song so much I can’t get through it without crying.❤️ Prayers sent to everyone who is dealing with a hard time in your life.❤️😭
Depression is not a joke. like i am very okay outside, i get along with my family and my friends but whenever that im alone, im so sad, sometimes i think of suicide, i told my mom that im not okay, im depressed and she doesnt believe me.. and that hurt the most. but i knew im not alone, someone up there is watching me, guiding me and protecting me, Jesus will be always there in our side. So to those experiencing depression, problems, anxiety, stressed. remember that Jesus is there. Just keep fighting and win the fight. God bless us all.
I'm dedicating this song to my twin sister. She was a beautiful kind soul who helped 10 homeless people in her short life, she committed suicide at the age of 9 because she was bullied I used to hide behind her I was her shadow I'm 13 now and made friends and helped homeless people and before she died I thought that I wouldn't live without her, sissy I'm strong and I thought you were too... I hope your proud of me for actually making friends and I hope that you my sis are happy to be my sister! Happy birthday sis...
My best friend’s twin brother just committed suicide last night😭
I'm so sorry for all your pain I suffer from depression I have been hospitalized over 160 times since age 9 and it's hard you don't know till you feel that pain it hurts bad and sometimes so bad we don't want it anymore I know now I won't give up till my times up I will over come and hopefully be happy in life again
i am absolutely sure that your sister is in heaven so very very proud of you, you sound like a great kid
@@charlescallahan7028 same everyone thinks they know but only a few people actually know what it's like to be depressed and be hospitalized for it

Lost my sister to suicide 4 days ago. Even the funniest people can hide their inner pain. I love and miss her
I'm so sorry. My thoughts are with you. I will pray for her. :(❤️
I'm still very sorry for you loss as I have lost a brother to suicide also and then my other sibling my brother a few months ago it is so very hard to do with the pain in how to cope you have to go out your own pace don't want no one tell you what you should or should not be doing or feeling is your heart that has to do with this sweetie, I go by the motto take one day at a time😳🕇
I'm so deeply sorry. prayers for your healing. I list my sister 4 years ago and I still feel the pain and emptiness. She has sent signs that have helped. They do send signs and come in your dreams.❤
I lost my sister too 8/29... i know what that pain feels like... it's a pain I never knew before and would never wish on anyone
Cindy Marrujo Yes...a pain like no other. Lost my grandparents but I never knew there could be deeper sffering. Guess it's the childhood bonding brought on by sharing beds, clothes, dreams, crushes....too much to forget.😢
I just found this song and it describes my friend perfectly. He was one of my best friends. My first kiss and he shot himself at only 16. A wonderful athlete and he played with passion in every sport he did.I'll miss him forever and I don't think any amount of time will heal this empty hole in my heart.
im so sorry for your loss . may he rest in peace. hes watching over you 🕊️🕊️. #forever16🕊️💔.
My first kiss hung himself at 15 and I have no words
Lord I say their names out loud all the time. Somehow I know God understands. Somehow I just know, grace was waiting for them, even at their most desperate moment…🙏🏻❤️
My brother in law died this morning. He was only 40 y/o. Keep your loved ones close please.

Thanks
This song saved me from suicide, twice...September 6th, and December 21st, 2013. I remember just about to take the pills, and drink it down with bleach, when this song came to mind....so I listened to it and bawled my eyes out.....just thinking....Rascal Flatts has made an impact in my life that none other has done before....gotten me out of my darkest moments in life....I wouldn't be here today without them...my dream is one day to tell them my story and thank them personally for all that they do.
Been there many times, but do not do it. You are too beautiful, and it would only make me wonder why. I am in that place at the moment, but some how I always find a way through.
I have been there... today I was thinkin bout it because my great great grandma just passed to day at 90. girl you are rlly pretty and God has a plan for you that doesn't envollve killin ur self!
sweetie, i know what your going through. its okay, just keep going. keep going, if you need help, or someone to talk too come to me.
Good for you.
This song helps you & me and other suicide people get through our tough time. next time you wanna play this song again. #YouCanSurvive #youcandoit #youcandothis #youcandoitwecanhelp
My heart hurts for all of the people suffering right now from losing someone from suicide or struggling with depression. I'm sending you a hug and love so that you know you're not alone. Turn all of your cares over to God when the weight feels too heavy to carry. If you don't believe in God, then focus on the beauty of the simple things in life that you get to witness, like a beautiful sunset or the birds singing. Please hold on because without you the world would be a sadder place. You are loved. ♥
Chester Bennington, you were so loved around the world. Most people could only dream of being like you. All I can say is... why?
Because you and the world only saw the outside.. not the inside.
It's an internal struggle that only you and God knows. Fame, fortune, cars, houses, mean nothing when your in pain inside. Look at Robin Williams. No one really knows the pain inside someone elses head 💞💞
May God hold you Chester Bennington in his loving arms you will forever be missed RIP
That is one I was thinking about during this beautiful song may chester and chris cornell rest in peace
The only thing anyone can do, is always show support to one another. Shows those who suffer from depression and other mental health issues that they matter. Show love, listen to what they, watch how they act. I know the signs aren't always easy to see but just let them know that you do care.
You never know you might help safe a life from suicide.
+Scotty McKilla Even if you don't care, I bet there are people who care about you. I'm sorry you feel this way.
Don't give up. I have been there too, and with the help of my faith I got through. Now looking back on those time that I wanted to end it I am so glad I didn't. Please, please don't give up, one day at a time...
+Thumper B praise the Lord !!!!xx
wish my family and friends knew about hiw i felt *sigh*
I feel ya. I feel the same way.
With the help of God, you can go through any struggle you have!! Keep your faith in God, He has the control of everything :)
Had one of my oldest dearest friends funeral today after deciding he had enough although he masked and told us he was finally on top of things , the guilt you feel is unreal when you wonder what if .. I called everyday , did I listen enough did I miss the signs anyway the memories will always be treasured and he was a true legend and you know what they say LegendsNeverDie Rest Easy my friend
I lost my mom to suicide a year ago yesterday... I'll never be the same. A huge piece of me is gone forever.... 😭
Ill be honest your right you will never be the same its been 7yrs since i lost my wife an i struggle each day cause only those who have been through a suicide can understand what we feel.

Sad :,,, (
Lost my baby brother in 2014 lost my mom in 2017 lost my cousin this year 2019..i miss them all so much.. Everytime I listen to this song makes me think of them
My prayers are with all of you who relate to this song. I cannot imagine losing someone this way. And to those of you who feel like life "isn't worth the fight", you're in my prayers too, and I just want you to know, that bad times happen and I'm sure you've noticed that part already, but many good times will happen as well. I've helped talk two of my closest friends out of taking their own lives..... sometimes it's hard to see the light, I know, I once had trouble myself. But those difficult things that I went through, they helped build the foundation of my faith, the foundation of realizing that I have a purpose, and the foundation of knowing that no matter how dark things seem, bad times don't last forever. I struggle with depression, OCD and Hypochondria every now and then. But they don't keep their grasp on me. Life and Love is worth more than anything else in this world and even if you don't know it, even if you don't feel it, you are LOVED. I promise you. By me, and whether or not you believe, by God also. You were not put here without purpose..... you were not put here to only see the bad. I promise things can turn around and get better. You only have to not give up. My life got better when I turned to God. I hope, if you haven't, that YOU find His love and peace, too. I may not know what my purpose is yet, but I know that I am not without it. I may not know you, but I KNOW you can get better. There isn't a doubt within my heart, mind or soul. God bless you, you guys. If you need to talk, fair warning, I may not always know what to say but I'm willing to listen, if you want to send me a message or an email anytime. @ megantfelton@yahoo.com
I llistened to this album so many times in 2010-11, and lost my father in 2012. Never ceases to amaze me the power songs have to transport you back to a certain time in your life, this one being particularly poignant almost 8 years later.
If you are listining to this song and it remindes you of a loved one that is no longer here i am deeply sorry but just remeber that person is in heaven and looking down on you right now and smiling i promise!! Now for whoever sees this and is thinking about ending their owen life you need to stop please this world is hard but suicid is not the answer and you are loved and you mean alot to someone espcialy god and he loves you and also this world isn't that bad i mean sure it has its evil times but also the good and beautiful and i have seen and been through alot of both but mostly evil cause i was once bullied mentaly and physicaly and god he was there for me and still is and i have to say this is a very beautiful world and you have a important part in it you could change the world for good or influence someone that will, the possibilities are endless and so amazing so don't focuse on the bad let that flow right over you and let god and his angels take care of it and look at the good and the future and work to make it better even when you hit rock bottum there is always hope for good i promise you that i have seen it and i will tell you right now if i could i would love to live here on earth forever and i would never get tired of it so if you are reading this please keep fighting and dreaming life is deffinantly worth fighting for i promise and i would hate for you to leave in the middle of your beautiful song cause even though i do not know you i care and i want you to keep fighting never give up no matter what!!!!!! And i hope you are having a blessed day and may God bless you and be with you and your loved ones :-)
my son 25.10 2000 - 12.08.2018, I miss him so much...
I cant listen to this song without it breaking my heart into a million pieces 😭
To whoever is reading this/ breathing
You matter to so many people. Even though you may feel alone your not. Yesterday I went to a funeral for my cousin that killed himself. I just with I got to tell him that I care and love him. You matter and don’t forget that. I love you
Just lost my 22 year old son to suicide on July 14,2020. It's been super rough on me and my 2 other children. This song says it all, so touching
"I had no clue you were masking the troubled soul god only knows"
Thank You Rascal Flatts for this song. It’s touched so many ❤️
Lost a childhood friend today. As we grew together. He Lost his brother in high-school to a car accident and was never the same since. He never knew how much he gave and made those feel being in his presence. Even years after we moved on from the town we grew up. Knowing the memory you left was always positive. His wasn't. Love you dude. We all loved you Kyle.
This song makes me wanna cry every time I hear it. So beautiful.
reading through the comments and crying :(
Same 😢
They say time heals all wounds, but those wounds will always leave scars and your heart will never quite be the same.
But it'll make you stronger
Omg I just came across this song, we all need to be kind and caring to others all the time as it could save someone's life. Great song.
I've lost many friends to the darkness of mental illness and loneliness. I only wish they could have understood how much their friends, families, and I loved and cared for them. Life drags people apart from each other, but bonds of the heart withstand the distance. If they had truly understood how important they were to so many people, I can't help but hope that it might have been easier for them to let their songs play on. I'll play their songs for them as parts of mine for as long as I live.
In 2006, I lost my daughter to suicide. In 2011, someone played this song for me. It is so powerful. Thank you Rascal Flatts!
I lost my daughter in 2005 to suicide also ! Prayers
I promise both of you ladies, your girls are with you, they'll always love you unconditionally, keep strong, my thoughts are with you both☹💛
praying for you now im so very sorry
I lost my son to suicide in 2019. Hugs to you
I lost my son to suicide in 2017
This song is Him😢
Thank you
Rest in peace my angel Jonghyun. It’s nearly going to be 6 months and not a day has gone past without thinking of you. My heart still aches and I cry every night because I miss you so badly but I’ll try to be strong and carry on. Rest easy my love ❤️
Im still crying.
Any Sundowner fans around ? This song is dedicated to a wonderful singer who fought depression and lost . Darrell Turner was and still is loved and admired by all who knew him ! I still think of him and long for the days I spent enjoying his entertaining ways !
What a beautiful song and what moving lyrics. This song will be played at the funeral of my soul mate who tragically passed away a week ago. Until we meet again, sweet angel.
This made me cry so much. I hate everything about my life and somehow this song made my day a little bit brighter
Im 20, finished high school 2 years ago, and today we just lost our 4th classmate to suicide, and this one hit home, she lived down the road and during middle school she and her sister and brother would spend countless days at my house...may they all RIP...😞
This song reminds me of so many I lost in the 2010’s. Namely, my high school crush, a guy who inspired me, and my mother. Lost all three of them between 2011-2014. All 3 died...not of old age. My crush was only 22. Enjoy every day you get with your loved ones! Be strong!
I lost my father 3 weeks ago....a huge piece of me has gone forever , no one will replace you Daddy😭😭😭
This song makes me miss my grandparents so much 😭😭😭
it is amazing how it is now 2017 and these words still carry the same meaning
Present times have affected so many. We need so much reaching out to each other. Many people having a hard time right now. Many can’t see the forest for the trees of the deep deception taking place. 🙏
This is so true, god only knows everything and I trust in him for the right reasons but lately I haven’t been feeling myself and missing loved ones isn’t helping much either
Stephanie Alaia I feel you. Having a hard time myself. Hang in there. Sending hugs and love your way ❤️
My son Nick, August 5, 1991- August 16, 2016, i love and miss you so much each and everyday.......
:'( Thats so sad. So young. Im so sorry to read this x
Rip truly sorry for your lost :(
Dont worry he's always watching you from heaven.
I wish I could tell my family how I really feel.. I love this song
Miss Little Vixen maybe try talking to a trusted adult in your family. Or a counselor at school or a teacher you trust. You’re not alone and you can get help ♥️
I found this song 6 years ago after my best friend/ sister committed suicide. She was only 17. In high school she was the Homecoming queen, played varsity football (one hell of a player and the only girl on a team of all guys), and graduated early at only 16. She was one of the funniest, beautiful, and most outgoing people you could ever meet. We always said we were going to go to college together and finish together. We made it one semester. Even now 6 years later it still hurts, i don’t think it’s a pain that will ever go away. I still wonder what her life would’ve been like had she stayed.
We haven’t forgotten about you babygirl, we love and miss you Kyla 🖤
“Now in my mind I keep you frozen as a seventeen year old”
That line broke me, my cousin passed away about a year ago, killed actually...
my heart is still healing, he was my best friend I grew up with him and he passed a few months before his 18th birthday.. my sweet boy how I miss you...
Losing someone is the hardest thing to have to try to understand.. knowing I’ll never see him again hurts the most.
In my mind I keep you frozen as a twenty two year old.
Happy Birthday Raphael.
You were loved.

Jongyhyun it’ll be 3 months on the 18th of March that you took your life.. it still feels like yesterday I woke up to the news.. I wish you could have seen how much everyone loved you..we miss you
수고했어요 종현
You did well Jonghyun
#5hineeforever
almost two years. rip Jonghyun, although I don't stan shinee, it was a horrible incident
He was my bias for the past 7years... And he still is my idol ❤️
Here if you need me I’ve been through same thing x
It must have been hard dealing with everything. It's sad that his sister had to find him like that.
Goosebumps while listening to this song. I can't help but think of all the broken people around me. Have I been really proactive in sharing the love of God to them or will I wait for another person to "leave the stage at the middle of the song"? Rascal Flatts had written a beautiful song.
6 years since my best friend committed Suicide.. Though she was a lot older she was more of a sister to me.. She was a blessing that God sent.. She gained her wings after battling depression.. Rest in Paradise sweet angel.. I'll see you one day! Gone but never forgotten.
Guys, Depression is no laughing matter, and yes, I am making sound like an urgent emergency, because We have got to prevent this, cause I am urgently praying for people who are on the edge right now!!!!!!
Please, guys, use every bit of Your strength to help keep a person in need alive!
I agree. I have depression. It has hurt me so many times
thanku for your prayers..my son and I need it..we r struggling financially..and it means a lot..God bless, your sister

Makes me think of my 16 year old brother , who left in 1994. I was 10 , and it sums up life since he has been gone. I've battled my demons , i stayed , and i wish he could have too.
I miss my dad I lost him to cancer 6-23-19 a couple days after my birthday I miss him but I have to be strong because that’s what he would want I struggle with depression and anxiety bad my brother just went to jail a month ago I miss them both I will see my dad one day and give him a big hug my brother will get married one day and so will I and my dad won’t be here to walk me down the aisle but if you’re reading this be strong everyone I love you!
Jonghyun, I can't help but think of you, my beloved inspiration, my reason to reach my goals and dreams. You were the person who inspired me to try harder even when I'm sad or depressed. You gave us all your love, your smile, your voice, your pain and tears and for that I will stay thankful for the rest of my life. When I was depressed and bad thoughts came to my mind, you were the sun that pushed the storm clouds away, you were the reason I pushed my boat of dreams further into the ocean.
I love you, I miss you Rest In Paradise my angel

Chris Crawford Hi
I'd like to dedicate this song to someone whom felt like a big brother to me for quite awhile,that attempted to take his own life on the 18th of September last night..I wish we could have done more to save you..I wish we wouldn't have had to pull the plug...I miss you big brother..Who told you life..wasn't worth the fight..
My brother committed suicide in 2004. We played this song at his funeral. Still brings tears every time I hear it!
just lost my daughter of 3 beautiful little girls to suicide 3 weeks ago, this song is so true, only God knows all the answers..momma misses you sooooo much
"This old world really aint that bad a place" whenever dark thoughts cloud my heart I hold onto thst hopeful part of the song.
If one day I'm gone, they will ask why and if there's something they could've said or done and the answer would be yes.
Why??
BECAUSE im tired. Thats all.
"Oh, God only knows what went wrong." Rest in Paradise Cameron, I love you & I miss you so much. You were my first celebrity crush, and my childhood. We miss you. ❤
I feel the same way. Cameron was my first celebrity crush. He was my childhood. We love you Cam. Fly high.
@@nikkidarelli6315 ❤️💔
I committed 2 years ago and now listening to this song makes me so sad about the people that I could’ve hurt, I love my family and friends so very much and now I can’t imagine what life for them would be like if my attempts worked, I realized that I have so much to lose and I want to live life until I’m old and grey, I want to live with my future spouse until we pass together, I want to live long enough to see my great great grandchildren. Life is worth the fight. Every second is worth living. Life is worth everything❤️
R.I.P Johnny. I knew you since 3rd grade. You were my best friend. In 6th Grade we did the Morning Announcements together every day. I lost you, and two years ago we reunited. We never got together. The day I finally decided I was gonna invite you over I looked online to hear that you had taken your life...and I sit alone always asking myself could i have done anything....we miss you johnny. We always will.
"When you took the stage you shined just like the sun, you'd leave the stage in the middle of the song" 😢 Happy Birthday Kim Jonghyun 💕💕 18-04-08
I just lost my best friend to stage 4 cancer today, i miss her sm, this song explains my emotions better than i can because i feel lost, lost without a friend to hold and pray for
