DescriptionAcrylic on canvas boardI know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and unable to cope since depression, anxiety and symptoms of complex PTSD have featured prominently for several generations in my family. I lost a friend to suicide in 2008 and there’s never a day that goes by when I don’t think about him (he did my colourful tattoos so there’s always a reminder!) and I can’t help but wish he had reached out for the amazing support organisations like The Samaritans offer rather than suffering in silence. The Samaritans has been a literal lifeline to other friends and I know the incredible difference it can make to talk in confidence without fear of judgement.BioHello!
