I'm new to this. It obviously absolutely right that people share how they are feeling, particularly when its really dire. And clear that we have responsibility for ourselves and our actions, not for other people and what they decide to do. But how do the rest of you cope with not knowing what's happening, when you are concerned about someone?For example, I'm been worrying about Cass all day, and very much hope she is still with us. It would be great to hear from her, but I realise that is partly a selfish need to hear how she is getting on. If we don't hear from her, she may have acted on her suicidal ideas- but we would never hear this definitely. No messages could also mean she has gone into hospital, and we might or might not hear from her again.
I expect this will have happened before, and would stress again I think its good that people do share. How do the rest of you handle it?
