“If I die here no one will ever know I didn’t want to”. Damn that’s deep. They say most of the people that have committed suicide regret it after the first second. That’s just sad. Rest In Peace to all of the people that have died because of depression or other mental problems🕊 😔

Kevin Hines almost died.. Now with his story he saves people. This is just so strange.. Someone who did something that later might turned out better. Not that his attempt is seen good. But if Kevin didnt survived and if he would have gave up. So many more would have died. This man was saved by god, to save others.

@Omar I've said since I first heard him speak publicly. He was born to save God's children. His journey was not one bit easy. I firmly believe that God put everyone where they needed to be that day. From the expert spinal surgeon to Herbert the sea lion. Not for Kevin's suicide, but to SAVE his and that of all who hear this astounding young man talk.

Before I was born, my twin sister died. When I was 2 years old my dad left. When I was 10, I almost lost my life due to a laceration on the right side of my head. When I was 11, my dad signed away his rights to my brother and I. A month after I turned 12, my oldest sister ran away. The summer after I turned 12, I almost lost the ability to walk. When I was 13, I tore my ACL in my right leg and they said I couldn't play a sport again. When I was 14, I developed depression which lead to 73 suicidal actions in only 6 months. When I turned 15 almost a year ago, I recommited my life to Christ. I became a song writer, a motivational speaker, a streamer and now I play tennis. I also have started writing a book. Everyone told me I wouldn't make it. I would end like my dad. I haven't listened a single one of them. EVERY day I wake up at 4am and go to bed at Midnight. I keep the mindset of, I can. I will. I must. I AM. I AM BECOMING SOMEONE. DON'T LET PEOPLE PULL YOU DOWN. FIGHT BACK AND BE YOURSELF!

Thank you very much for this Kevin❤ my father is an alcoholic father my mother has bipolar disorder. I'm 22 , I've been suicidal and have always have had multiple suicide attempts since I was 14. My parents always arguing since I was young all I could do was cover my ears and hope they would stop, and it was like that almost all my life. Going into those gates at my high school every morning I always had to put on a fake smile and pretend to be happy, even being surrounded by my friends I always felt like I didn't fit in and still always felt so alone. Going home wasn't always the best either I would want to runaway and just get out of the same hell I did everyday I felt like the only way for me to not be in any more pain was to take my own life. More of those thoughts than I can even remember have been occupying my head, fighting and battling those demons more and more everyday made it much more unbearable to want to live to see another day and even think "maybe today will be different, maybe today will be better" and for it to have just always been the same thing everyday, I didn't want to have to keep going through the same painful routine anymore. For you to have survived and now you telling your story has helped so many people (including me) so much I now have so much better days and I realize how many people actually do care and do love me. I thank God everyday for giving me another day of life I get to live surrounded by my loved ones. You have impacted my life in such a tremendous way I'm glad you are still part of this earth and continue to help a lot of people who are going through so much.

Your story truly shows how precious life is and the miracle of the sea lion is the worlds way of showing people that every single one of their lives matter and are important. It gave you this amazing second chance to show you and people all over the world who struggling that suicide is never the only way out. I had a similar experience myself. On Boxing Day 2020 I jumped off the roof of my house because I felt like death was the only solution to my problems. And just like you, as soon as I jumped I was hit by that instant regret and on my way down I pleaded to God the same way that you did. By some miracle, after landing on the brick front drive, the only injuries I sustained was a severely broken leg which I needed emergency surgery on if I ever wanted to walk again. The doctors in a&e did a full body examination and were astounded that I hadn’t sustained any life threatening injuries. If I had landed in any other position I could have suffered life threatening head, neck or spinal injuries. The injury to my leg was so bad that the doctors said it looked like something you’d sustain from a high impact car collision. I am facing a long road to recovery now but watching your story has given me so much hope and I know that I’m going to be okay. Every day I thank my lucky stars that God was watching over me that day and gave me a second chance. Now I have a whole new appreciation for life and I will never gamble it away again like I did that night and I hope that I can follow your footsteps to recovery and use my second chance to tell people all over the world that death is never the only answer, giving people hope and support just like you do and helping them to see that life is the most precious thing in the world. Thankyou so much for sharing your story, you’ve given me the strength that I need to fight this battle and focus on my road to recovery

I just attended your talk at the SPC in MN. I was living in Mill Valley at the time of your attempted suicide and remember the story of you being rescued by the sea lion. Thank you for sharing your brave story! I wanted to recommend a wonderful book about adoption that might resonate with you called: You Don't Look Adopted by Anne Heffron.

I'm a high school student, and I had pretty much given up everything that gives me joy just to get decent grades, and throughout all of February, I had constantly been considering jumping off a bridge, and today I had the same thoughts until this video appeared in my recommended. There really is nothing more comforting and inspiring than seeing someone who has suffered the same way I have make it through and talk so openly about it. Thank you so much

Hi Kevin, my name is Holly. I first heard your story in 2016. I found a tremendous amount of relief ( that I’m not alone), hope and healing in your story. Never in a million years, did I think I would find myself reaching out to you for direction. Direction in how to help my now 17 year old son, who has now been struggling with suicidal thoughts for almost a year now. I never thought I would feel absolutely helpless in how to help my son. We have always been very close and talk to each other about everything. Usually, I know exactly how to talk to my son Cory and he usually values my guidance. But, I don’t know how to help.... I can’t seem to reach him, no matter how desperately I want to. On December 8th, 2019, my sons father died unexpectedly. He was 38 at the time of his death. My son and his Dad had not always been close. His father struggled with addiction since he was 14. Needless to say, his addiction played a major role in my son’s depression. I remember my son asking me if I loved him. Of course the answer was “YES, with everything that is good inside me”! Then my son asked, “what’s wrong with me then”? He continued to ask, “if you love me, then what is wrong with me that my Dad doesn’t want to love me”? I never felt someone’s pain so intensely as I did in that moment. Over the next couple years, my sons father was in and out of jail and overdosed in front of my son, twice. But that was the turning point. His dad got clean and they spent the next 5 years building the relationship that Cory had always wanted. Right before December 8th, Cory spent the weekend with his Dad. They made some great memories and we’re making plans for Christmas. That Monday, when Cory got up for school, he knew something was very wrong after taking one look at his grandmother. Now, I know full well the pain my son is in. I went through almost the exact same thing at almost the exact same age. My Dad was my hero, so when he died, I was devastated. I thought that would help me better be there for my son, but it hasn’t. On top of losing his Dad, now he says he is terrified of the day he loses me, and that’s the part that he can’t handle. Kevin, how do I help him with this?

Kevin I had watched a doc. of yours, years ago during my high school health class (talking about suicide) and I always remember the words you had said "The moment I vaulted over I decided that I DONT WANT TO DIE". Youre words saved me from suicide, saved my life. The sheer fear of not having the luxury of regret ones the noose around my neck was secured, held me back from committing suicide. Your words truly saved my life

My little brother put a gun to his head 3 years ago. He had schizoaffective disorder and had struggled for years. His last note referenced feeling tired. He was tired of fighting and pulled the trigger. Our family will never recover.

Things go wrong with the brain. Out of wack hormones,prescription medication, Diseases of the brain that are known and unknown. I was on four steroids, two anti depressants, and a family ripping me apart, and criticizing my every step, and my mother was the worse one of them all. I lost the will to live. The worse part about surviving is being ostracized, and still being treated the same way as before. I wasn’t in my right mind at the time. I partially blame my family doctor for just throwing meds at me instead of trying to get to the bottom of the problem. How could he think that four steroids wouldn’t harm me. My family hated me then and they hate me now. I finally put and end to their abuse. I no longer have contact with them.
