Earlier this year, James was experiencing flashbacks from childhood and racial trauma. "I had started thinking of ways I could end my life to escape these thoughts I was having and one day I found myself by the river. I was scared of what I might do and I knew I needed help."

Struggling with a break up, an overwhelming new job and ADHD diagnosis, Ryan reached crisis point. "I called 999 because I didn’t know what else to do in that moment. It felt like there was no way forward."
