right this very second

choices
ok, so its about choices
well right now, I could-
call the hospital and ask the nurse to tell my mum I love her.
Or not.
I could get hideously drunk until I forget about it all
or not
I could eat everything in the house and then purge until its all gone, and im empty, relieved again
or not
I could drink some more
or not
I could ask someone to help me, anybody to help me figure out what to do with the way I feel. oh. I tried that.
Or not
I could cut myself until it all ebbs away, and I find peace, just for a minute
or not
I could kill myself
or not
I could tell someone how much I love them
or not
I could scream and cry
or not
I could keep it all inside, like it always has been
or not
I could let ed show me the way through
or not
I could admit how much ive fucked up
or not
I could just watch my life runaway form me
or not
I could end it all right now, this very second.
Or not
I never was very good at making decisions
I'll tell you what though-I know which are the most appealing options right now. Does that make them the right ones? Well, I'd like to say I care, but right now, right this second that would be a lie.

I know it may seem like some of those choices are the easiest ones, but the truth is that those aren't the right ones. And even though it seems like you don't care right now and maybe all of you doesn't care, there is a part of you--the real Vicki that is still fighting. Please try to keep holding on even though it feels like this is the hardest thing and the last thing you want to do. Because you are such a beautiful person and it would be such a tragedy to end it or hurt yourself. You don't deserve that. You have so much to give to the world and even though it seems like it's so overwhelming now, every minute you hold out is a huge victory.

I will be thinking about you every minute. I wish I could call and talk to you!!

Jessie is so right. The easiest choices aren't always the right ones, don't let the destructive voices undermine you. There is a lovely person inside you worth saving and worth looking after. You make the world a better place. Remember that.
