Suicidal thoughts can occur to anyone at any point in their life and are more common than you may realise. You may be feeling overwhelming pain, hopeless, worthless, isolated, or like there is no way out. While it is OK to have suicidal feelings, it is important to reach out and let someone know how you’re feeling. Lifeline Central VIC & Mallee is here for you. We understand what it’s like to have thoughts about suicide and we’re here to support you.
