HI there I'm Drew and are from Western Australia I'm going though major depression ATM and are struggling to cope with my circumstances and situation that I find myself in. So I thought I would reach out.
I stopped drinking in 2019 and since then have realised it is probably too late to make any real differences or changes in my life @ (54)
I'm currently homeless and living in a tent in a NP.
I regularly have thoughts of suicide, have no family and not much in the way of friends, even though people tell me I'm a nice guy.
What I have learnt since being homeless is that society in general is cruel, judgemental and not really forgiving or understanding, everyday it seems I'm reminded that this is true, Does anyone else have these thoughts/experiences? and constant thought's of suicide, any advice would be appreciated, preferably your own... Thankyou

Hi!
im in Victoria so I don’t know that I’ll be much help but I feel you! Even just a chat can lift your spirits sometimes so I thought I’d reach out the world is cruel and people don’t mind sticking the boot in when your down. Please believe you are worth something find anything positive and cling to it like a lifeboat!!!
I know it’s difficult I spend days in my room just crying trying to cope 🙂
keep your chin up it may not seem like it but things will get better….so I’m told!
