Hey Simon. You're so sweet.
My heart sank aswell, I hope Katy is alright, and you and everyone else here.
I'm sorry to hear that you and others were searching things like that on Google, I've been there too but I won't get into that.
I'm so glad that you're still here Simon, I really am. I'm thankful that the forums have helped you, and that I can talk to you. The same goes for other people - I'm glad everyone is still here, and I'm glad the forums have supported everyone, and to those I've talked to who have been polite to me, thank you. It means so much.
Aw thank you for saying I'm a beautiful person and friend Simon, i don't think I am inside and out, but that made me feel a bit better, thank you so much. You are too.
You're exactly right with your kind reassuring words. I'm sorry that you dread those events you mentioned, I do too actually so you're not alone.
Huge love and hugs to you Simon, my beautiful friend inside and out also. That means so much to me.
Take care Simon, forever your friend,
Tayls xx

Hey all.
Although this isn't my thread, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for supporting Katy, and for your kind words to her and each other. It's nice reading it and heartwarming to see so many people care and to keep checking in, but also respecting if she wants alone time.
I hope we can all support each other like we have been with Katy; check in on one another and include everybody, and everything else I mentioned.
It's good to see the kindness. I hope everyone here can treat everybody who has commented on this this thread or the forums in general that way.
Katy, I really hope you're right. Everything that everybody has said is true, and you're entitled just like anybody else to alone time, to "recharge" if you will. So self care, it's important and not selfish, the same goes for anybody.
If and/or when you'd like to come back Katy, I hope reading through all of the supportive helps and makes you feel better.
Like everyone, I'm always here for you and everybody else. I may be younger than everyone, or so it seems, but I care and I'm here for everyone.
Please take care and be alright, we understand that you need time to yourself and that's perfectly OK, just be safe.
We're all here with open arms, huge hugs and love.
Love and hugs,
Tayla xx

Katy, you're here, yay! I'm so glad to see you back and that you're alright.
I also have an appointment with my Psychiatrist tomorrow, I hope mine goes well, but I hope yours goes well too.
Take care and be safe, I hope you're OK.
Love and hugs,
Tayla

Hey Katy,
I breathe a huge sigh of relief hearing that you’ve checked in. Yes this thread is a “pit of despair” as you call it, but I can speak volumes of the amount of help beautiful people such as yourself have been for me personally.
In our own worlds we think very lowly of ourselves, but believe me I can’t speak highly enough of you all. I really hope your appointment goes well, and goes a long way to making the tough road ahead you now face to ensure a brighter future. You have 110% of my support.
Tayls, thanks for your lovely words last night. I’ll be honest and say they brought me to tears-happy ones. You truly are a wonderful person, don’t let yourself or anyone else convince you otherwise. Good luck for your appointment as well - I’ll be thinking of you.
Love and hugs to everyone here.
Simon

Hey my great friend Simon.
I agree with you, I'm glad Katy is alright too, and I hope you and everybody else is also.
Aw, you're welcome for my lovely words, I'm glad it made you happy and they were happy tears. Thank you, I don't think of myself in any good way but that means a lot to me.
I'll let you and others know how the appointment goes tomorrow, thanks. I hope Katy's appointment goes well also, more worried about hers than I am with mine since she was so down and I've been thinking of her.
Love and hugs back to everyone,
Tayls xx

Hi Katy!
It's so good to see you back. Fair enough to need some "time out" for a while. Sorry you've been through one of those awful, horrible, terrible times. Glad you have the psych tomorrow. Big hugs from us both here and pats to Storm. HUG, HUG xxx Let me know if you want to chat - otherwise we'll leave you in peace dear lady. Hugs again.

I'm also here if you'd like to chat Katy, or anyone else.
I hope your appointment goes well tomorrow and you can feel a bit better, and that the forums help you. I hope I can help you and everyone else in some way. If not, then I apologise.
Hanna is right, if you need time away again, that's totally fine, or if you'd like to chat, we're here too.
Love and hugs, please take care and be safe. Take care of you, mentally and physically.

Hi all,
Hope everyone is hanging in there. I can’t reiterate enough that we are here for each other. I know when I come home from a crap day at work like I did tonight, that I can come here and there’s a message of hope from my friends on this threat. I love how we can we can in some way pick each other up with messages of support.
As I said to Katy at the start, I was at the end and Googled “what to do when you have suicidal thoughts,” and never knew I’d “meet” some incredible people like I have here in this little community.
For that, I thank you all. I’m so glad that when I’m down, people here pick me up, and vice versa. Anyone here who thinks they aren’t valued or don’t rate themselves as good people - think again. Some of you guys such as my wonderful supportive friend Tayla can be proud of what they achieve here. Stand tall my friends.
Thinking of you all,
Simon
P.S. Katy, thinking of you tonight my friend, I and others are here for you. Open up when you’re ready.
P.P.S. Tayls, one word for you - thanks. xx
