Okay, so a bit of a clickbait title I do apologise, but technically it's not wrong?
I work for a shopping centre and a teenager tried to CTB on site, so he was brought into my office where staff sat him down and spoke with him until paramedics were able to pick him up and take him to A&E.
It's happened before so it's not like that was a major shock, but hearing him talk to my team about the pain and upset he was going through really got to me. I wasn't dealing with him so I was just at my desk carrying on with things, but the stuff he said resonated and it really upset me to know that there was someone else so close with the same pain as mine.
I'm kind of just upset about the whole thing. I really want to CTB but have no idea how I could without ruining my family's lives, and just the logistics of planning and succeeding are so stressful.
It just put a downer on my day (not to blame the kid at all) and I kind of just feel like I need a hug.
