It’s even more shit when you feel unable to talk about that feeling, for fear of the panic and upset that it might cause for those close to you or professionals you speak to. Society has taught us that feeling suicidal is irrational, frantic, urgent, scary. Sometimes it is all of those things, but often it’s fleeting thoughts, feelings of wanting to “disappear,” or having no feelings at all. It can be slow and passive and not look like wanting to hurt yourself or making a plan to. When I first had thoughts about finding it too hard to live with my chronic illnesses, I think I scared myself. I felt deeply guilty and people’s minimizations of my illnesses popped into my head.

In seventh grade, I realized that I had a crush on my best friend. With horror, I decided I must be a lesbian—13 years old and living in a sheltered suburb outside Philadelphia, I thought this was the end of my life.

Stress, according to most doctors, is the number one trigger for health issues and many different conditions. This puts stress higher up the ladder than tobacco or alcohol.
