For the second time in just a few months, my friends and I are mourning another life lost to suicide.

Too many people are struggling with mental health and suicidal thoughts. If you’re one of them, please speak to somebody. The world is a better place with you in it, and can be a better place for you.

Put these numbers in your phone if you think you might need them.

116 123 – Samaritans. If you prefer you can email jo@samaritans.org.
