Suicide, self-injury, and depression are real things, they exist and people struggle with them. Hope is real was started because we have been there, we have experienced those things. We were able to overcome because someone shared their story with us, so now we want to share our stories with you.

Everyone has a story, and by sharing our stories we can really show people that hope is real. People need someone to listen to them and to be able to listen you need to be able to love. Listening is love, and that is what we are here to do.

This site is a place for people to share there stories and not get judged by them. Also, if you need someone to listen we can do that as well. We want people to know that these issues are real, and people out in our world need to know that there is hope.

We are not professionals we are  just people who have been there, who want to help people, and get our stories out there.

Please feel free to send in any of your  thoughts for our blog or your personal story of a trial you are facing or a trial you have overcome. All your words mean something and you need to be heard.
