I lost my beautiful daughter Kacee just 29 days ago and I'm lost without her. She was just 23 years and 2 months old. She tried so hard to stay here, in her own hell, for me and her sister. Her (our) story reflects many stories on this site in that the Mental Health System failed her (time and time again) - right down to the last hour of her life by not ringing me or an ambulance when they knew she had overdosed on her prescription antidepressant. I will tell her story one day, but not just now, I'm too overcome with grief. Thank you Fanita for this site - I wish I had found it before October 26th. Colleen You was born Special, Beautiful and Wonderful..........I hope you are with your Dad now ....... Love you so much sweety (((((hugs)))) Love Mum xxxxxx

I lost my husband 10 weeks ago to suicide, we have 2 kids age 6 & 4. He lost his job (for dubious reasons?) maintained his innocence (in a card he mailed me, that I received the day after), and killed himself less than one hour after the sacking by jumping off a multi-storey car park. If only he had known how his job/status/shame or whatever didn't matter to anyone. Everything is solveable. Nothing is worth doing this. He just had too much pride and thought everyone would think ill of him. His sudden irrational brain didn't let him see outside his dark place. I am not angry, just sad. If only the world didn't put so much pressure on "the man, the provider" and that men didn't feel such pressure to be successful/respected or whatever. I'd rather have a jobless husband and have to sell my home, than have no husband at all. Let's do all we can to take the pressure off the man as provider. I work too but even that didn't make a difference in my case.

I have had a gun to my head one time, many years ago when I was a junkie. I felt more about those who loved me than myself. Now, many years later I am here for myself, and my wife and 3 kids who would never have happened had I killed myself. I am truly blessed. If anyone out there is thinking o the same, look to the future. It will always be bright.

My 25 year old Aunty took her own life in January this year. My Dad was the one to tell me. I never imagined that three months later my Mum would be telling me my Dad had also ended his life. I know so many people who have come to this site, feel the pain, anger, disbelief, guilt, shock and sorrow that I feel. At times you wonder if it's really happened or if it's just a dream. I think it does help in some small, small way to know other people are going through what you are. Other people are having days that are just a black and just as hard to make it through. Although my Dad's suicide is a scar I will carry for the rest of me life, I will also carry the privilege of knowing him for 18 years of my life and for that I am so thankful. I wish you all strength and courage in your time of need.
