Mine passed 3 years ago yesterday. It's still so hard because I dont want to trauma dump because it feels like there's nothing that can be done. Im forced to live in a world without him on top of all the stuff wrong with society from greed and toxicity. I met someone the same month and it was hard to try to hide it, but when she found me crying against the fridge as silently as I could while she was in the other room, it felt so good to have her there. She's always been supportive of my struggle. Lately its been hurting a bit too much with the rest of my life falling apart, and being distanced from her makes it hard. I just had to get that off my chest.

Dealing with this myself. Knowing that the bad moment that I've been dreading is happening got rid of the dread.

Even though I'm still horribly unprepared for it, I still can't help but find things to laugh at and enjoy myself.

Seeing that drawing and the matter-of-fact language he uses hit me like a freight train. My Mum died of cancer last year (it's almost a year soon) and before I sought professional grief counselling I had this act that I'd put on where I pretended to happy, but behind the thin veneer I was sad, frustrated and immensely angry - It was most alienating feeling I've experienced to date. I'm better now, but the grief will always be there and seeing others who are willing to talk about it lessens the pain as I don't feel alone in that struggle of complex emotions we call grief.

So, to all people who are out there having a tough time, write what you feel. And then, trust me, you will feel better. Hope you have a nice day.

Puberty is a tough, confusing time for many adolescents. The stress and pressure of school on top of that really adds to that. Remember you're strong for getting through it and that your thoughts and feelings aren't unusual. Many other teenagers your age or older or younger feel very similarly. You'll come to accept yourself and how things are before too long.

One of the things I adore about Michael Rosen is how well he chooses his words when he talks to the media - whether it's via interviews, pieces to camera or his promotional material. He says things very cleary, in a way that even young children can understand, but at the same time never feels like he's talking down to you. That's a rare skill, that only comes with a wise and compassionate heart.

And one day my best friend asked me how I was feeling and I told him everything, it was sad but YES I did felt free , I could not accept what happened but then I finally let go. I am living my life to honor my Family, dreaming big, thinking big and putting the actions so I give my Family what they deserve.

For some reason, doing so allowed me to sort out my thoughts better, and it also helped me develop my own writing styles.

My mom died when I was 3 in a violent crime. I never talked about her, asked about my mom, or talked about my feelings growing up because I felt that it was the cards I was dealt, therefore, I must use tragedy to strengthen my resolve. It only led me to a deep depression and a confusing relationship with women. After a lot of thinking and writing, I've mostly come to terms with the circumstances in my life, emotionally, I am stunted, but everyday I strive to be better than the day before. Death in the immediate family breaks the mold of what life is supposed to be like. The guidelines exist for a specific family idea and if that is eschewed by circumstance like death as you grow up, the guidelines don't provide enough guidance anymore, and you have to fill that gap in your maturity by yourself. I can only imagine the pain of growing to the age and seeing your child become an adult, only for the path you thought you were on to be completely derailed, and your life dismantled.

I just wanted to say, what you wrote touched me. Especially about having to fill the gap in maturity. My mom went to prison when I was very young and didn't get out until I was an adult, and though I somewhat knew about how I dealt with that, and examined a lot of it in therapy, what you wrote really hit home for me. I started writing down my feelings as Rosen said, and I'm now crying my eyes out. And I really needed a cry. But I feel so much better now, and I'm so glad that there are people like you out there that feel brave enough to share their feelings in this way, and that I feel a little less alone. I wish you nothing but the best. Thank you.

When I was in my first couple of years of school in the early 90s at some point we had a visit from a funny man with a bonkers energy who we were told wrote funny poems. We had the best assembly we'd ever had and we left talking about the grown up with the childlike way about him but as with most things at that age, It just passed into memory. Then about 20 years later I'm on KZitem and I see the memes and my brain was struck with a memory of that man in the videos talking and performing in front of a crowd I was in. Then 5 year later, I'm a Dad myself and my son is watching and performing "Bear Hunt" to a Michael Rosen video. I send it to my Dad and he says "Do you remember when he visited your school? You cane home chatting about him for hours."

There is time so don't worry, find something to live for and don't forget to care for you as well. Anyways I hope you feel better and have a great, beautiful life.

All right here we go: i feel depressed and suicidal for the past 6 months. I'm nearly 18. So it might have been my first breakup that did it, or the stress of school for my exams for university, or my childhood traumas. Maybe all of them. Whatever it is, it always feels good to talk about it. I even talk about this with friends not in a deep way but sarcasticly even that feels good. Or i seek comfort in my family wich i normally don't talk to even that feels good. Healing is a long journey that might take up a lifetime if it have to. So anyone that might going throught the same things i just want to say that be patient with yourself, try to minimilise your bad habits and i promise you someday you'd be glad that you didin't do it.

As a 20 year old who was in a parallel situation all I can say is make your today better than your yesterday. Life is suffering with moments of relief, but things will improve as you do. Suicide is a very stupid and selfish act. u don’t know for sure if death is the even the end. It’s the ultimate act of betrayal to yourself, potentially screwing up your next life after death, not to mention your screwing over the people and pets you care for when u leave them behind.
