    It looks like your post mentions suicide. Sometimes, people post questions on /r/LegalAdviceUK during times of crisis, and sometimes we're not the best place to ask or provide support.

    **If you are considering harming yourself**

    * Remember [9 out of 10 people](https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/means-matter/means-matter/survival/) who attempt suicide and survive will not go on to die by suicide

    * Contact [The Samaritans](https://www.samaritans.org/) anonymously by calling 116 123

    * Visit subreddits such as /r/SuicideWatch for community support

    * Make an appointment with your GP and discuss your feelings

    * If you feel you are at immediate risk of harming yourself, please call 999; *they are there to help you*.

    **If you have been recently bereaved**

     * You can seek additional support from subreddits such as /r/SuicideBereavement and /r/GriefSupport

     * Seek online resources, such as [this page from the NHS](https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/stress-anxiety-depression/coping-with-bereavement/) or [this helpful PDF document](https://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/Suicide/Documents/Help%20is%20at%20Hand.pdf)

     * Consider reaching out to [Cruse Bereavement Care](https://www.cruse.org.uk/get-help) or [a bereavement therapist](https://www.bacp.co.uk/search/Therapists?UserLocation=&q=bereavement&LocationQuery=&Location=&FoundLocation=&SortOrder=0&Distance=10)
