Hey

https://www.prevent-suicide.org.uk/stay_alive_suicide_prevention_mobile_phone_application.html
so I actually found an app called “stay alive” popped up.  I think it is pretty good for a free app. Its has resources of help you can find eg The Mix, Samaratians ect & can even add your own. Which I’ve done for my local ones because I always lose the papers. 

& has things like breathing exercises, make your own safety plan, put down reasons why you wanna live ect. & add photos that are important to you



But thought I’d share cause definetly worth looking at anyway, if get suicidal thoughts 
“And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Is great. Is good to organise sort of stuff to and have all in one place
