PONHEA KREK, CAMBODIA – FEBRUARY 27, 2018 Heng Dany, 28, decided to end her life and hanged herself. She took advantage of a moment when her husband went to the market to buy groceries. When he returned home, she was beyond help. The husband confirmed that the woman had suffered from a chronic illness for many years and her condition was getting worse. She often spoke of suicide.
If you’re thinking about suicide, please stop and recognize that your pain is not permanent, but this step would be. It may feel like there’s no other way, but there is hope, even if it’s hard to see right now. Your feelings are temporary, and with help, they can pass.
Talking about what you're going through might feel difficult, but it’s the first step toward healing. Don’t turn away from the people who want to support you. Life can offer more than what you're feeling right now, and the pain doesn't have to last forever. You deserve help, and it’s available.
If you need immediate help, please contact a helpline.
