Suicidal thoughts can occur to anyone at any point in their life. They are more common than you may realise. You may be feeling a sense of hopelessness, overwhelming hurt or pain, isolation, worthlessness or the like and feel like there is no way out for you. While it is ok to have these feelings, it is so important that you know you can reach out and let someone know you how you are feeling and that there is genuine help and support.
