 My worst fears have to do with dying of drug overdose and cutting. I hate blood and the thought of slitting my wrists, so why not show how terrifying this death would be for an emotional teenager's family and friends.

It would be better if it looked like the mirror was not placed there for the picture.,,

Great job on using the mirror. It really makes the picture more powerful.

Have you tried seroquel? There's also Zoloft, Haldol or Resperidol. Oh, you mean your nightmare is that somebody else will try this? I see...

Loose the mirror and you have a better realistic photo.

Good dramatic composition and a documentary sense of realism. The pointless combination of pills and blade I chalk up to dream-logic. Your title makes a poem of it.

the processing on this really works well - very graphic in nature with the significant noise and harsh colors and lighting.
