    Suicide???

    I have been to that edge before and had a suicide attempt. I was in a severe depression and when I thought I couldn't take it anymore I tried to end my life. Fortunately for me God had a different plan for my life. At the time of my attempt I was not a Christian. I had grown up in church and...
