If you decide to 'post' about your experience with current or previous suicidal thoughts, feelings or behaviour online, consider that other people in your life who don’t know about your experiences might find this out as a result of your post.

You may also receive a mixture of both positive and negative responses. Think about what aspects of your personal experience you wish to disclose and remember that you don’t have to 'share' everything. Only disclose the personal details you feel comfortable letting others know about and leave out any information you would not want everyone you have ever met, or will ever meet, to know about you.
