Colin Ryan RIP
This is so sad to see for such a young man, thoughts with his family and especially his wife and children.
I've also struggled hugely in the past with depression and suicidal ideation, it got so bad I went to talk to my GP and was the best thing I ever did. She signed me off sick from work, referred me for counselling which took a while to arrange but when it happened, it transformed my life and the way I think about things. I'm not "better", but I'm definitely better able to deal with everything and if you're struggling then I really do recommend talking to someone like your GP or the Samaritans.
Hope you don't mind me flagging up the link again!!! Talking really can help and GPs are now really well equipped to point you in the right direction
