(~) Suicide / Suicide prevention 

I can't say I was prepared, but tonight when I visited my parents there was theme going on TV on suicide. Not the usual thing, but actually talking to those who feel the desire & those who have lost someone, to try to understand & normalise talking to others about this darkness.

My parents have seen me breaking before & while I'm better there's a lot to relate to, so I cried a lot & we also got to talk a bit about it all. Not much, but some. It's not easy.
