Three months ago today I tied a noose around my neck and tried to kill myself. I must say that I have in that time, become a different person. Mentally and physically I am stronger and fitter than I have been for years. I’m in a far better place. I can’t say it’s been an easy journey, it’s the hardest thing I have ever had to do, and it’s a journey that doesn’t really have a destination. I fell as low as a man can fall and came out the other side. I’m not cured and never will be but I now have the will and knowledge to ensure I never fall again. I have many reasons to carry on fighting, but it is my children that give my life meaning. I had somehow, in my pain forgotten how much they love me. I nearly robbed them of someone they love very much and not only did I nearly destroy my life, but theirs as well.
I can’t say how much getting these pictures has improved my problems with poor self image. Along with drugs, counselling, webinars, zoom meetings and self discovery it’s been such a powerful way to see how far I’ve come. Thanks Jo! X Ginger Snaps Photography
