It was so sad to hear this news. Even though we didn't get along and had disagreements - I always wanted to know how she was doing. I'm lost for words really. She was let down by services. I hope she's happier wherever she is.
I am another who used to speak to Sarah. She was a very kind, caring and compassionate young lady. Very loyal to her friends. We hadn't spoken in a long time but I am gutted to hear that the system failed her. I hope she is at peace now. Thoughts are with everyone. Stay safe.
This makes me really sad to hear. I guess i was one of the many who had hoped for some kind of miracle to happen so Sarah could have had the chance to turn her life around. It makes me sad also because from one of her last threads on here i got the impression that the system had basically given up on her. And no one should ever have to feel abandoned like that. It makes me sad that a life could have been saved if anyone had taken the opportunity to rise to the challenge. I do believe with all my heart that Sarah could have been helped. Every time the system fails it gives room for a tragedy. She was young, she cared so much about others, and sadly so little for herself.
My heart goes out to everyone affected by her passing. I hope she is no more in pain and have found the peace she could not find in life.
I didn't know her that well but from what I saw she was such a caring person . She will be missed. My thoughts are with those close to her. rip sweetie xx

I couldn't have said it better.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
^same. I actually mentioned yesterday being really worried about you Helen. hope you're doing as ok as you can be xx

My thoughts are still going out to everyone affected by this - please take care of yourselves in this really hard time xxx

The last few days my Facebook has been full of tributes to Sarah and it's clear how loved she was.

I miss her. I'll never forget how much we laughed over coffee. Just at really stupid things. Makes me sad to know we'll never have the chance to do that again.
I posted this on Sarah's Facebook wall earlier, but I hope Sarah's words will be of some comfort to her friends here too.
On the night my mummy died back in 2011, Sarah sent me this message: 'I love you & it's gonna be ok, I promise you. It'll get better, time IS a healer. You'll manage to cope as time passes, the memories won't go away but try to remember the good times, and try to remember what she'd want for her little girl - happiness, love, care, peace, safety, wellness. You can get through this. The pain may never go away but it will get easier to manage and the wound will heal, though a scar will remain, but it'll get better gradually... You'll never forget her, but you put her in your heart, you fill the hole you have inside with her, in your heart she'll always be, and you'll keep on living and it'll be okay as can be lovely. I love you. Always.'
I think the same can now apply to those who are grieving for Sarah, far far far too soon. Sarah's words gave me a bit of comfort and love when I was so lost and alone. She spoke so wisely, and I wish Sarah could have provided herself with the same love and care as she showed to others.
It's taken a few days to process and even still I still think she's going to message me every day.
I remember back when we were just starting to be friends in 2011 she was the only person at the time that stood up for me when my mother crossed a boundary and completely hurt my feelings. other friends would have just came to me and told me my mom was not a good person but Sarah went beyond that and stood up for me and told my mom what she said was screwed up and she should be ashamed.
she had so much fire and passion for always helping her friends and supporting them and seeing other people succeed but she couldn't see that she could fight for herself too.
there's not a day that goes by that I don't think of her. She's touched my heart in a way that not very many people get to and I'm forever greatful to have had her as such a close friend.

"I know you're sad, so I won't tell you to have a good day. Instead, I advise you to simply have a day.
Stay alive, feed yourself well, wear comfortable clothes, and don't give up on yourself just yet.
It'll get better. Until then, have a day."
Such sad news. Sending love and hugs to all who knew her. I didn't have a lot of interaction with her but her name was always one you saw on here <3

♥It's the ups and downs of living life this way. Promise me you'll never go away. Just stay with me through one more night because it's always darkest before the light and now I promise you I'll never turn away. I won't let you give us one less heart to break...♥
