Removing shame......leads to healing....

Asking for help......is asking for help.....

Whether it is to cross the road due to a disablity......or seeking help to stay alive.....

In my experience, I have shouted my ideation from the rooftops until someone would listen.......and my hospital always has listened and helped.....and kept me alive......they have also listened when my ideation has been homicidal....

IMO.....it matters little what others think......I don't care if they are frightened.....if they know me and love me like thy say they do, they will take me seriously and they do......and big safety measures go in to place.

Afterall, my life is infinitely important, even if I do not believe it at the time. Not just to me but also to my family, especially my son......

Please talk of it......it can be so isolating when everyone runs away from you.......and if people are educated and have access to resources, they can help, because they KNOW what to do to help......

Sorry if I have crossed any boundaries.......but my sons father committed suicide Xmas day last year......yep, it was horrific......my son and I had good talks about it......I am sure it will come up again as he gets older......

Lets remove the taboo.......I imagine we would get many more people admitting thoughts of sleep eternal, with supposedly "normal" cognitive pathologies, than we ever guessed.

Thanks all and big big hugs
