Discuss your lows, regards your wish of death.

Talk to your GP and CPN and explain your negative moods it is important. Also when you are low and on your own, Telephone NHS INFORMATION LINE on Tel 111. The Samaritans can help by listening. The police and NHS can arrange a Crisis Team to visit you to discuss your fears. You can also ask to be put in a place of Safety.

When you get your HIGHS you can come and decorate our cottage for us Lol
