Please read this if you are desperate.
Painful conditions always pass, both mental and physical. Life always changes, and better times will come back inevitably. Do not decide to harm yourself for a problem that will pass. Please do not make major decisions about your life when you are depressed, or have taken alcohol or drugs.
You would never advise a friend to die because of their problems. Tell yourself what you would tell a friend. You would always tell a friend to Hold On.
If you are distressed, why not go to sleep for a while? Your brain will have solved many problems when you wake.

"I cannot believe I had thoughts of suicide" is a very common statement when people like you have recovered from a very stressful event or illness. Suicidal thoughts can happen to anyone, but they will fade away if you fight them, talk to friends, or get professional help.
If you can provide your story, please email us with details. You can remain anonymous, but we would also like prominent Australian people to tell us how they managed to win the battle against depression, stress or suicidal thoughts. Email editor@suicideprevention.com.au.
