At a very low moment today, I sat in my car and phoned the @samaritans for the 1st time ever.
It doesn't matter what you are going through or how you are feeling, if you need to talk to someone without judgement phone them.

Today I somehow graduated with a first class degree in mental health nursing. And as I walked across the stage, I thought of teenage me, sectioned in a psychiatric unit and thought ‘this is for you’. I wish I could have shown her the future she didn’t believe she had. 👩🏻🎓🤍

It’s Hallowe’en. The turnip-man’s lopped head
Blazes at us through split bottle glass
And fumes and swims up like a wrecker’s lantern.
Death mask of harvest, mocker at All Souls
With scorching smells, red dog’s eyes in the night-
We ring and stare into unhallowed light.
