**"I don't really want to die but I don't know how to live"**

This is something we often hear from guests at Maytree. Suicide seems like the only option because it may appear that there is no other way out. Some people prefer not to go to hospital or to seek help from doctors because they don't feel this will give them what they need. Others who are seeking professional help, may feel that they could benefit from additional non-medical support. Whatever situation you are in, you might consider Maytree as an alternative. 

Maytree can offer you a calm, safe space to stay where you can talk about your feelings and darkest thoughts in a confidential and compassionate "home away from home". Our befrienders are there to support you by listening to your problems and offering you a calm, non-judgemental space to talk about things you might feel you can't tell anyone else. At Maytree, trust is a priority. We keep everything confidential so that you can feel safe and be yourself. 

You can telephone or email us about yourself or someone you would like to refer or put in touch with us. Any contact is completely confidential, with no pressure to take it further if you don't want to. Maytree is open for calls and emails 24 hours a day, so if your call goes through to voicemail, please leave your name and contact details, and we will get back to you as soon as we can.<div class="chainbb-footer"><hr><em><small><a href="https://chainbb.com/steemit/@yuvi/i-dont-really-want-to-die-but-i-dont-know-how-to-live">Originally posted</a> in the <a href="https://chainbb.com/f/steemit">/f/steemit</a> forum on <a href="https://chainbb.com">chainBB.com</a> (<a href="https://chainbb.com/chainbb/@jesta/chainbb-frequently-asked-questions-faq">learn more</a>).</small></em></div>
