Trigger warning: suicide

One of my best friends committed suicide recently.
I have been knocked sideways...I’m still “doing” life competently, but am struggling with intrusive thoughts which leave me in a state of panic and horror.

AIBU to just not know how to get through this? I’m interested in other’s experiences, I guess.

Hi there,

This is a super sensitive subject, and we really want to be kind and mindful of how we talk about it.

For example, we don't allow mentions of suicide methods, and will remove any that we see.

We thought we would also add a link to our Mental Health resources - here.

You can also go to the Samaritans' website here, or email them on [email protected] if anything here is triggering difficult emotions for you.

And, as ever, don't hesitate to report any posts you feel we should take a look at.

All the very best from MNHQ
