Good idea. Where are you planning to send it? What country are you in?

Well there is currently a massive spotlight on male suicide in the U.K. Perhaps there is a gap between highlighting the issue, and actually helping?

You need something either shocking or catchy.

Help me off the bridge.

Dying of Depression

Stop Suicide

Killing me quietly

Waiting to live

Who are you trying to petition? What is your goal? From my experiencing, it's the waiting lists of an overstretched NHS that is doing the time.

Personally I think you should set one up so that the NHS can give you flexibility as to where to can get counselling. I've been offered counselling countless times but 6 miles from work and mid afternoon. No way can you take half days to do these appointments so then you don't go. I got private for 8 sessions but once you use them, the insurer then doesn't cover you again. It's pointless and so you are back to square one

You can set up your own Forum, type on MIND I think ?

PROVISION OF MORE SUPPORT, DEPRESSION. That is all I can suggest.
