Hi,
(edit: Sorry I didn't realise I'm not supposed to post about suicide but this isn't about me and I don't know what to do) 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??? Last edited by RescueMyLife; Jul 07, 2011 at 09:11 AM. Reason: just spotted that you're not supposed to post about suicide |

My PsychCentral name is Caramel. I noticed the name Caramel is mentioned above in the comment, but I am not familiar with this post. Is it possible for more than one person to have the name Caramel on PsychCentral?
Thanks! Caramel

Thanks for your replies I appreciate it. The whole thing kinda freaked me out yesterday as I'd never been put in that position before.
Just to update you on the situation in case you're interested; in the end I replied to her message publicly on my blog and also sent an email to her expressing my concern and trying to be as positive as possible. I suggested if things were really that bad that she should please at least call the Samaritans and gave the phone number & email address. I also phoned the Samaritans myself to find out if there was anything else I could/should do. They really are amazing people. To my huge relief I received a response back from her this morning and thank goodness she did call the Samaritans and is in a much more stable frame of mind now. She apologised for scaring me. Thanks again all of you for replying to this, and Caramel, no, my online name is RescueMyLife (or Anonymous Drowning Man) - when I reply to comments on my blog I sign off: RML - this particular lady decided that 'RML' sounded a bit like 'Caramel' and she's been calling me that ever since. Don't worry - you're still unique  All the best - panic over & thanks again. RML |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
