This might b a little heavy for a Sunday morning but I’m very comfortable talking about this and with all the things that are going on and have happened recently I think this may be a good time to talk about it. Do u know why there is such a huge mental health and suicide problem in farming… 1. farming is extremely hard! Especially mentally and financially! ya basically we’re just putting a seed in the ground and sending up a prayer… 2. Farming is not just a business, it’s your life, your love, it’s your passion, I can say this because I’ve 100% been there, it wasn’t only farming that caused me to go though this, but also my side business, when you’re so freaking passionate about something, at times it will literally suck the life right out of you and question everything, unfortunately even why your here and if it’s worth living, I’m honestly a really happy person and never in a million yrs though something like this would happen to me, but your mind can be your worst enemy, but know this from my personal experience, and u gotta trust me on this, it’s always the darkest b4 the dawn, I wouldn’t wish this feeling upon my worst enemy, but …. I’ve also seen the other end of this, it’s a million % worth it to keep going, it’s extremely exhausting and will take a toll on you, there were days I wish I had cancer or something other then this, because that’s what it does to you, but it is WORTH going through it and not giving up! Now with all this being said, if you’re going through something, reach out to me, I know from experience and I can try to help, any hour of the day I don’t care, my phone is always on, I’m a dm away, you can get through this!!!!
