Real talk hours - I survived my first suicide attempt 4 years ago today

I got a lot of hate for causing a Magic pro getting fired on my account. I was getting hate here, Facebook, and Reddit. I was inundated with death threats. It got to be too much

I& #39;m still here

This is the first time I& #39;ve talked about this publicly. I kept it to myself when everything was going on bc I didn& #39;t want the trolls to know they hurt me and the ppl who looked up to me to think I was weak

I have learned better as I have gotten older & as my reach has grown

There is this prevailing thought that you need to have a thick skin to do what I and other ppl in media do

That& #39;s somewhat true. Not every person who calls me fat or nigger or tranny bothers me

But getting death threats? Ppl hoping you will yourself? That shouldnt be normalized
