On the 19th of January 2014 I was to find out someone dearly loved by all his friends and family had taken his own life, I decided to do this post because I want to inform every that there is help available and acts like this have devastating consequences without going into to much personal detail.
What is Suicide?
Suicide is the act of intentionally taking away your own life.
Why do people commit suicide?
There are many reasons why people end their own lives but truth be told only they hold the answers to the true reason they did it, things like depression can swallow up a persons mind and make them feel so alone they feel it's the only escape, However suicide is not an escape it only leaves behind more sorrow, guilt and questions to the people they were blind to see loved them.
what support is there?
I have took some time out to look into this for anyone feeling low, You don't have to be feeling
suicidal to get help with your emotions.
You should talk to someone you trust or use these sources to get help...
- Samaritans - 08457 90 90 90 *(UK) 1850 60 90 90 *(ROI)
- NHS
- CALM
- Childline
- Students Against
Please do not think you are ever alone, there are other options and Suicide is not one of them.
I'm sure this post will help many people who are struggling with depression, I'm so sorry for your loss and hope you're doing okay x
