(as the patient),

I have been really struggling as due to severe stress my mental illnesses have become much worse and I find myself falling into suicidal despair.

I try to manage frightening suicidal thoughts and urges myself but do at times need exra support.

I would like to say a huge thankyou to staff at crisis who have been extremely kind & caring to me when I have felt unable to cope.

Dear Ms Lawson,

Thankyou for your response.

You have many very caring staff at The Crisis Team as I have found out at this very difficult and stressful time in my life. I am truly appreciative of their support and compassion.

Last week I was going through hell due to awful stress in my life and repeatedly having suicidal urges. I spoke to three members of your team who were absolute angels. I can recall two names Alan and Chris so please pass on my thanks to them.

Kind Regards,

Miss A
