I was on a life support machine at merely 14 years of age.

But here to tell the tale.

Take each day as a blessing, and take control of my outlook daily.

Work to help others as and where i can as ambulance crew.

Good on you, OP. You always seem to have such a positive, inspiring attitude.

And good on you for being a paramedic. I know you’re getting a tough time in the press but you’ve all worked your arses to the bone over the past three years. You do a great job and it’s a shame there isn’t enough money in the pot to give you a well deserved pay rise.

Leeds (Home) / Sheffield (Work)

Probably not as profound as many, but backpacking with a random group of strangers at 19.

Taught me a lot of skills, independence, and self-confidence.

Got ill, ended up in hospital for a week, couldn’t speak the language, the group I was with was doing their own thing. They couldn’t do much to be fair. First time I had ever felt truly alone.

Really taught me the value of being close to family, friends, and community you’re from even it you don’t get on 100% with it.

My mother and stepdad fell apart.

My mother went off with a guy I didn’t approve of at 17, so caused a lot of arguments.

Came home and found my stepdad had locked me out as it was the day she left.

I had to break in as thought he had ended himself, but he came out and was violent, so called the police to assist me getting out.

I had 24hrs to pack up my life and fit it in the car.

With no family or friends, I filled a classic mini which I lived in for near 2 years.

I had to quit my A levels as needed to earn money to live.

I kept clean of drink and drugs, worked way harder than I thought I could.

Came back to car one night after work and everything was taken and car was on its roof as a write off.

Insurance didn’t pay as it was fire and theft and the car was there.

A lot of other bits in between, but through work, investment in myself and determined attitude, in the last 23years I have now got 3 cars, 1 motorcycle, 1 horse, 2 companies, and a 850k house with a small mortgage.

I fly planes, ride bikes, fast cars and travel.

Life is never permanent, every 10 years it changes for me.

Now it’s not about avoiding the storms but learning to dance in the rain.

Coffee and good sex (hence here) is the secret to my success.

Connecting with people charges my spirit and soul, the coffee helps keep me up

What ever happens, keep on moving forward

Got badly injured when I got knocked off my bike by car when I was 7, it happened at Stanlow as I was back going home to St. Helens.

Got shot in my eye with an air pistol at 14, it was scarey at the time spending 2 weeks with both eyes bandaged up.

Got knocked of my bike at 22, went over the bonnet of a car whena car pulled out in front of me, and landed on the back of my head.

In 99 I got cancer, that was the final point of me saying fuck it.

My mum dying when I was 13, she was 36, changed my life, made me appreciate each day I’d never guaranteed.

More recently, managing a care home throughout covid changed me drastically, I burnt myself out and my heart broke daily. I had to find myself again

Be here I had 2 very different experiences just over 3 hours apart one was absolutely amazing and possibly one of the best moments of my life ever and the other event just over 3 hours later was the complete opposite and almost ended me the birth and then the death of my first born child. Not going into details as even though its 10 years since it happened she is always in my thoughts and there's always the what ifs in the back of my mind and I know that we could have done nothing differently or changed the outcome

Bless you. Mental abuse is far more damageing than physical abuse.

But there is, nor should be no space or place for it!

People should speak out for themselves and others where poss in safety.

I tried to hang myself once, but luckily the hook broke after a few seconds. I always think that was a life changing experience... it made me realise that even though I can feel so fucking low sometimes, I really do want to live, especially all these years later when I have so much more to live for.

I've been through so much in the 29 years I've been alive, and some things have completely changed my outlook on life. I lost my brother to suicide in November, and it really does make you look at the world in a different way, it makes you appreciate how precious time and our days are. You've got to make it mean something and surround yourself with love.

I'm glad everything turned out well OP.

I never explored round there too much, I used to hate the stretch of road going past the refinery. The cycling club I was in called it suicide mile.
