    Hey @LolaPumpkin13 How are you feeling today? would you feel comfortable going into a little more detail on whats on your mind?

    I’ve just been playing animal crossing but I have felt like I haven’t been listened to really

    @LolaPumpkin13 , that sounds hard, and lonely too maybe - having to hold so much of this on your own. What's on your mind most today? We're here and we care. You're doing so well to talk. Animal crossing sounds like a really comforting game to play!

    Hey @LolaPumpkin13, you are doing a brilliant job reaching out about this and sharing your thoughts in this space.

    I'm hearing that you're blaming yourself a lot for the breakup, and it has left you feeling like you are controlling, manipulative, possessive and selfish. You don't deserve to feel that way about yourself, but it's understandable you might be feeling that way about yourself after what has happened.

    You mentioned that you give up and I can see you said you've spoken with Samaritans, which is so strong of you to reach out to them. I'm wondering what support they gave you when you spoke to them?

    I honestly can’t remember I’ve spoken to so many people and I’m done I’m tired I’m very depressed and it doesn’t help when your own family doesn’t care

    ppl dont always need advice. sometimes all they rly need is a hand to hold. an ear to listen. and a heart to understand them. 🧸

    Hi @LolaPumpkin13 It's understandable to be exhausted of fighting to get the support you need but you absolutely do deserve support. I'm wondering, if you don't want to reach out to those support links tonight, do you have another plan for this evening to keep yourself safe / help you relax?

    I've included some resources below that I think might be helpful:

    1. https://www.relate.org.uk/getting-over-breakup
    2. https://giveusashout.org/get-help/resources/relationships-and-mental-health/

    If you do feel unsafe, we urge you to contact Samaritans, Papyrus, or SHOUT for 1:1 as well as 999 if you do feel at immediate risk of danger.
