100x this !!!!!!
I don’t ever want to see “be kind” or “have a good heart” from people who continue to shame, berate and mock others for being different than the “societal norms”.

You can’t say be kind and then mock someone who’s struggling with personal hygiene or mock a woman with an onlyfans.
I don’t ever want to see people mocking, belittling n invalidating people’s experiences of suicide and suicidal ideation. Everyone’s situation is valid, do you know what is a good preventative? Listening, being kind, genuinely wanting to make this world a better place for others.
When I was in school I was constantly made fun of for being “the depressed girl” (I don’t fully blame my peers, I blame the stigmas) I was called attention seeking and the attitude change after I made a near fatal attempt on my life.
No one with suicidal ideation or tendencies is a burden, they are hurting and deserve treatment, support and compassion.

And no, you’re not a mental health advocate if you’re only advocating for de-stigmatisation of mental health towards one specific group of people i.e the bunch of you who only advocate for male mental health and disregard and mock anyone else’s.
If someone says “be kind to tories then” You’ll get a no ❤️

The tory government cut mine and many other people’s mental health funding meaning we didn’t receive the treatment we needed at crucial times, they also basically shoved two fingers in my face when I was a young carer.
I have nothing to plug other than this -

Every person who is experiencing suicidal ideation or suicidal tendencies is not negatively attention seeking. You can say “be kind” all you like but actual action is what will make a difference to a person.
You will never be a burden or negatively attention seeking for speaking up about your feelings.

I want to say a last couple of things now -

Thank you for all the love on this, it’s so incredibly important and it’s also imperative that we take action not just be aware. Have open conversations, listen to others and never dismiss another person’s feelings. (1/?)
I can relate to so many of you and what you’re saying about not being heard.

You survived and you’re still surviving, if you can get through that then you truly can get through anything.

I am so happy you are here. (2/?)
You don’t see the good right now and that’s ok. I don’t expect you to when all your mind is doing is showing you the dark. But the good is coming, you can hold onto that thought I know you can.

We’d rather listen to you then listen to your eulogy.

The sunshine will come 💛
