With thousands online, a raw account of a night when she nearly gave up on life.
In a video posted on her Facebook page on Friday, September 12, 2025, Vargas revealed that she once reached a breaking point where she thought she had seen her last day. The post, which she tied to Suicide Prevention Month, carried a powerful caption:
“Late Night Finds—but this was supposed to be my last day ever. But the sky opened up and I think the Lord said to me, ‘This world is a better place with you in it.’”
For Vargas, this was not a casual disclosure. It was a courageous confession that she had once come dangerously close to ending her life.
“Most of you will just scroll through this post, and that’s okay,” she said in the video. “Suicide is a heavy topic to discuss. But I have to say, it took a lot from me to finally open up to the world and say that I have been through such a debacle, and I was in it so deep I came very close to succeeding.”
What stopped her? According to Vargas, it was a moment she can only describe as divine intervention.
“It was such an amazing thing actually, to be in a very dark place and be literally pulled out of it by God’s grace,” she explained. “Just as I was about to jump to my demise, the sky opened up and I felt a warmth rush over me. I cried my eyes out, stepped away from the balcony, and onto my knees I prayed: ‘Lord, though people may have hurt me, though life has given me so much to bear, I know You are still with me.’”
That night marked a turning point. Vargas tore up her farewell letters, returned home to the Philippines, and began piecing her life back together.
Her story, however, does not end with survival alone. In August 2025, Vargas also went public about her ongoing struggles, including her autism diagnosis, her battles with mental health, and the challenges of raising her child as a single mother.
By sharing her journey, Vargas is opening doors for conversations often shrouded in silence. Her testimony is a reminder that even in the darkest hours, moments of grace can emerge, and that the simple act of telling one’s story can help others feel less alone.
As the world marks Suicide Prevention Month, Vargas’s words stand as both a confession and a call: that choosing to stay is a victory worth speaking about.
