In the first episode of 2022 we wanted to take on something big and meaningful. Caitriona shares her experience of feeling suicidal, Kayla shares her experience of discovering her partner was suicidal and what that meant for both of them. This episode explores lots of hard feelings and gives a real life look at where mental ill health and suicide can sometimes meet. 

This episode discusses suicide and may be upsetting for some listeners. If you feel like you need support the Samaritans can be contacted for free on 116 123. Community Crisis Response Team operate every night from 5pm to 6am. If you or someone you know has had or is having thoughts of suicide, the best place to start is by talking with your GP.
