From people who came through it
“A note for the next person. Eighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. The worst part: my therapist knows. I got a new job this spring. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. One day at a time.”
Bilal from Bradford · been through living with suicidal thoughts“I was in the same place nearly four years ago. It was telling my sister was the hardest thing and I couldn't see past it. I've started painting again.”
oliwiamango · been through living with suicidal thoughts“You are not alone. I know that sounds like a line but it's true. I'm here, typing this, and I've been where you are. The thoughts don't disappear overnight. They get quieter. You find reasons to stay, even small ones. My dog is one of mine. Your reason might be different. Find it and hold on. Tell someone. A therapist, a friend, a stranger on here. The pretending is exhausting. You don't have to pretend with everyone.”
Joie · been through living with suicidal thoughts“You don't have to tell everyone. But tell someone. For me it was my sister. It was the hardest thing. But it made the thoughts a bit quieter. Have a plan. Mine is on my phone. Use it when you need to. The thoughts might be loud now. But they can get quieter. I'm not going to say it's easy. It's not. But you're still here. That counts.”
