From people who came through it

  • โ€œA 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.โ€

    Bilal from Bradford ยท been through living with suicidal thoughts
  • โ€œYou 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.โ€

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. In 2023, that was me. For me it was the thoughts come at night mostly. I wake up most days without that dread. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. xโ€

  • โ€œIf you're just starting with these thoughts, I won't say it gets easy. It doesn't. But telling someone, even one person, can take some weight off. For me it was my sister. I also keep a list of small things: my dog, a sunset, a cup of tea. When it's bad, I pick one and do it. That's all I've got. And if you can, see a therapist. Mine knows what to do when I don't.โ€
