asmr for when you’re struggling with thoughts of self-harm (in honor of su*cide prevention month)

Hi everyone, the subject of today’s video is a difficult one. In honor of September being su*cide prevention month, I wanted to make a video for anyone struggling. There is no judgement for the way you’re feeling or the thoughts that your brain is producing. Life can simply be really hard and we all have different issues that we have to deal with. You are safe here.

My hope for this video is that it is one that people can come back to in a time of need. I might just be a stranger, but I hope that my words can mean something to you.

You are loved. You are seen. You are worthy. You are kind. And the world is a better place with you in it ❤️
