Stories
From survivors of suicide attempts, and those who live after another person's suicide
The aim of this page is to bring together personal stories from around the world.
​
These will highlight the three sides of suicide:
Firstly the stories of people who have tried to die. These are shared by people who have attempted suicide and survived, and who can share the things that made them feel death was the only answer. They aim to show the ways in which they work to live and overcome to desire to die.
​
Secondly the stories of people who have experienced Bereavement by Suicide, and how they struggle and strove to cope day to day, from people who are grieving the loss of someone they love who has completed suicide.
​
Thirdly the work of organisations such as IMP;ACT who are helping people recover from suicidal thinking, or supporting people bereaved by suicide.
​
These stories are shared without an intention of causing guilt in people who have tried to die, but in the hopes of giving you inspiration to live.
