Hey @Impluse_the_newsies 
Thank you for opening up to us about this. It sounds like you’ve been dealing with some scary experiences, and I think you’ve made a good decision by letting someone know how you’ve been feeling.
You’ve asked whether you should tell someone about the thoughts you’ve been having, and I think that’s a really good idea. Can you think of any people you’d feel comfortable chatting with about this? Opening up about your mental health for the first time can be hard, so I’m curious to ask how you feel about doing that?
You've taken a brave step today, and we're here to continue listening and supporting you. We've sent you a check-in email, so when you get a chance to take a look, please do 😌
hey sorry i took forever to respond im till not sure how to tell people could you help me with that
Hey there @Impluse_the_newsies 
It can be really challenging opening up to others about how you're feeling at the moment and what you're experiencing, especially if it's all new to you as well, or if you don't really know how to describe it! How you're feeling is so valid about it.
If you have some trusted informal support in your life (such as family, friends etc) then you could try opening up about what you're experiencing to them. Maybe they could have experienced something similar, or could give you some advice on what you're expereincing from a loving and caring perspective.
Also, getting in touch with more formal supports (such as a psychologist) is also important for you moving forward. You can get a referral to a psychologist via a GP. This will mean that you're able to explain what you're feeling/ seeing with a trusted professional, and they can help give you some steps moving forward. It might make a bit more sense as well by talking to a professional!
