USAI am 15 years old, normally a straight A student and I love helping others and giving more out to people.
Roughly three weeks ago, I attempted suicide for the third time. I was suffering from a deep depression and I honestly couldn’t seem to get a hold of myself. And then after my suicide attempt, I actually looked around and realized the effect it took of others.
I realized people cared. And that’s when I realized I deserved to be happy.
Not even a week later, I went to the library and randomly found this book. I always go to the nonfiction section and see what interesting books they have in it. The Secret was on the bottom shelf. I didn’t notice it at first, but when I did see it, it seemed so much more interesting then every other book in the library. I knew I needed to read it. Once I checked it out, I could not even wait till I got home. I went outside and found a cool space in the grass and started reading. I couldn’t put the book down, I finished it the next day.
Since that time, I have realized so many things. I realized I can change my life, I can turn it all around and become the person I want. I hated myself, genuinely. Now, I can’t help but point out the things I absolutely adore about myself.
I realized there is hope and that I can accomplish anything I set my mind to. There really isn’t a better feeling than that.
Now that I know The Secret, I know how to be happy again. I know how to be everything I ever wanted.
Thanks to The Secret, I am alive today. Thank you so much to all of you.
