Battle With Suicidal Thoughts
Hey everyone 👋🏾 My name is Josh, I’m 16 years old, and I’ve found victory over suicide. I play Damien in the new short film, “Hope 911” and I’m honored to be apart of a movement that will save and uplift so many lives. I never thought I’d be sharing my story publicly, but if that means I can help someone through their journey, it’s worth it. Sharing a story takes courage, so I thank you all in advance for sharing yours with the hashtag #HopeIsOnTheWay to encourage those who struggle with suicidal thoughts that they can get through it, too.
P.S., if you want to know more on my battle with suicidal thoughts, check out the hashtag and be sure to stay tuned for “Hope911”, a Yunion production, releasing Sept 29th!
