TRIGGER SUICIDE / DOM VIOLENCE / MENTAL HEALTH Please speak to the men in your life. I live with my partner who will not mind me telling you all he has battled with huge mental health issues for the last 10 years. He has had zero support from family (other than me and our boy) and was told to “man up” “pull yourself together” which is crazy - I don’t understand why it’s ok for women to have emotions but men can not???!? He was having a complete breakdown FFS. As he thought he had to bottle it all up and stay strong - the as to why is his story not mine. I have listened too several boys/teens/men in my kitchen over the years in tears as somehow I knew they weren’t right and the empath in me just knew. I didn’t counsel or advise I just listened and asked questions, and they found their solutions. One talked about the horrific DAILY domestic violence HE experienced another about horrendous childhood trauma HE suffered with another stuff which is unspeakable for anyone yet HE found his voice with me. The first left the partner who had tormented him for years and is thriving. He and the kids are in a much better place. He doesn’t come round now, probably worried I will give him the look and he will just spill the tea. The second is now looking for a safe space to deal with the past and it’s happening - he’s wobbling a little bit however is so much more himself. The last is a Dad something he never thought he would be and is so much happier. They knew I was a safe space - and I will carry what they told me to my grave. I only talk about it with God, to grant me the wisdom and compassion to help. I held them all and sat on the dog bed (classy I know) and let them speak, and heard them. I really need to focus on those I have helped as I missed one on 31st Jan 2018 - rest in peace George we love you. I never ever want another phone call like that one again. Please ask and really hear your friends - they may say I’m fine - which really is a (F@cked Up, Insecure, neurotic, emotional mess) but watch, look and listen Please 🙏 Crumbs after a month off from socials I didn’t expect this to be my first post back but it is So there. If I am your friend, you have my undivided attention and support. I have only a few friends but those friends know they have me. God Bless and if you don’t want those I wish you a happy new year. Look after yourselves and those you love today as tomorrow may be too late.
