Have you ever dressed up as a Ninja Turtle for Halloween? If so, which one?

Yes, that's seriously my questions. But I'm glad that you've been able to do everything you want to do. When people look at others like us, people with disabilities, they tend to think we can only do so much. But it's people like you that shows everyone that we have a disability. We aren't a disability.

Dude, I'd be the Mikey to your Donnie.

I myself have a genetic disorder classified as muscular dystrophy. My potassium shifts from muscle to muscle and when it leaves a muscle, that muscle becomes temporarily paralyzed. Hence the name Hypokalemia Temporary Paralysis. And I know what you mean. Usually when someone tells me I can't do something that I know I can it's because they couldn't. But me, I do it for myself and them. After doing something I always go back and say " I did it, your turn " and help them through it.

I think everyone at one point in time has thought about suicide. I've been through two funerals because of it, and even I have thought about it myself. There is no coming back from that decision and all you leave behind are sadness. I won't tell you that living is easy and everything good will come soon. It takes work and self-want. YOU need to want to make things better. YOU need to want to make yourself happy. Everything that happens, depends on YOU.

People will tell you what you need to do. Some of what they tell you might be good for you, some of it may not be. But, you have to look at it and decide for yourself if you want it.

From the age of 20 I decided that I didn't care, that I was going to be cynical, and I would make everyone's life a living hell. Well, it took me four months before my 24 birthday to realize I was wrong. I didn't want people to hurt, killing myself would in turn kill my mother whom I love, my sister would no longer have her big brother. It was at that point I decided to try and turn my life around for the better. To be a better person and to help those who need it.

It has not been easy as I still have a very high anxiety problem ( to the point where everything causes my anxiety to trigger ) and I still deal with my depression. But I've decided to seek out the local free clinic health center to speak to a doctor and a therapist ( or psychiatrist I'm not sure, forgive me. )

I decided to do this, and YOU can too. Get yourself some help, bub. Suicide is never a solution to anything I can promise you that. Not matter what you think there are and will be people who will love and care for you.

I hope you stay safe.

Serious edit: Don't give me Reddit Gold, give it to the people who commented before me, especially /u/daninmn or /u/FireworkGrenadier. I'll be happy knowing that we could just help someone.
