CAMBODIA A middle-aged couple (37 male, 32 female) decided to commit suicide in an unusual but very effective way. Each of them detonated a homemade bomb on themselves. The man’s abdomen was ripped open by the explosion and his insides splattered around. The woman’s face was disfigured by the explosion. Both died instantly on the spot.
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.
