TRIGGER WARNING

[sade_18]

Today I ended up getting an ambulance too a&e because I wanted to end my life and thankfully I’m still here and with the help of the community mental health team I hope that I will only get better

Life can seem overwhelming and the pain can be non stop but sometimes helping someone else can really help make you realise what there is to live for. You know how those awful days feel- can you help others know there's help here too? I'm really glad you are still here. Xx
