I am writing an anonymous blog about my struggle with depression. Today I received a comment from someone who has left me comments before, but this one was different - the 2nd half of the comment sounded to me, horribly like a farewell from someone who is planning to commit suicide:

..."It is very odd just trying to get to know someone fomr their writing but you sound like a compassionate man. Maybe try directing some of that compassion towards yourself. I wish you well on your continued journey. I wish too that I could continue to keep reading of your development but I regret I am at the end of my road. I have been fighting too long and I have no heart left in me. I aim to sort a few things out and then will seek to take my leave. God bless you Caramel – I know you don’t do religion but I used to and it used to feel good. For some reason I don’t even feel worthy of that any more. With love."...

I don't want to over-react as I don't know this person, so don't know how serious this is, but also if I am the only person who has been given a hint, I don't want to ignore it. What should I do?? I think I know what her real name is and I think I know what part of England she lives & I have an email address for her.

What should I do???
You could pass on the e-mail address to the samaritans / the crisis team within the NHS or even the police.
