Tribute Wall

Forever in our hearts.

On World Suicide Prevention Day (Sept 10), we're walking together as a community to remember those lives we've lost to suicide and to help Australians in crisis.

To everyone who is suffering

"Hi, to everyone who is suffering. You are not alone. "

The quiet dads

"You don't have to suffer alone. We know how hard you work to make all happy. It's okay to feel vulnerable. It's okay to take time off for yourself. There are people around you who can share at least the emotion burdens! "

Mick Durston

"I love that you fished, played the drums, drank gay rum and just did you. I'm sorry you couldn't see that you had all these people that loved you and would've loved to help you, miss ya brother "

To everyone suffering

"We're all in this together. You are NEVER alone"

- Neema

My mum

"Hey Ma, I’m so proud of the person you are and everything you’ve become. You grew up alongside me from such a young age, and seeing you now doing what you love honestly makes me incredibly proud. I’m proud of you for everything you’ve been through, all the sacrifices you’ve made, and everything you’ve overcome from such a young age until now. Somehow, you still continue to do so much not only for me, but for everyone you care about and love. You have no idea how much of an impact you’ve had on the people around you, especially me. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without you. I love you so much, Ma ❤️"

Aunty Symone

"In memory of my aunt, who we lost to suicide a few years ago. We still love you, miss you, and carry your memory with us. Your life mattered, and you will always have a place in our hearts. To anyone who needs to hear it keep talking and reach out when things feel heavy. Keep going for the people who love you, for the moments you haven’t lived yet, and for the possibility of a life that feels lighter than today. You don’t have to face it alone. "

- Torah

There is always Hope

"Connect and Converse Check in on others: Reach out to friends, family, or coworkers with a simple text or call to ask how they are really doing. Listen without judgment: Give people a safe, empathetic space to share their feelings without fear or criticism. Know the warning signs: Watch for extreme mood changes, withdrawal from friends, talking about feeling hopeless, or giving away belongings"

Roy Forbes

"In memory of my kind and gentle Dad. Too beautiful for this world. "

- Heidi

Lissa

"I still talk to you often Lick (Lissa) , sometimes I’m angry, sometimes I’m sad, but most I think of you with so much love that’s why your loss hurts soo much , you saw me so clearly that I never had a masks with you , you were the 1st person who truly made me feel seen and understood, you definitely knew me better than I knew myself.. I wish I had understood how the mirror works and that you seeing me was both a projection and a reflection of us both , you saw me clearly because we masked the same way.. listening to Nina’s words at the funeral and the systems she described were similar if not identical to the way I used those same systems…. And they worked until they don’t and when mine failed I feel into addiction, and that numbing saved my life , it allowed me an escape from the internal pain and the stories I wasn’t ready to go through to heal , and no I’m not advocating for anyone to turn to drug/substance abuse, because that’s a hard road home to yourself on top of the trauma that was underneath but dissociated from since childhood bought to the surface by yet another failed relationship domestic violence abuse at the hands of yet another person who should not have harmed me , telling me that was love … my diagnosis for CPTSD came just a few weeks after your passing as for the 2nd time all my systems failed.., I didn’t not want to feel your loss, and the loss of so many of us .. your daughter & your family… but this time I was brave and I sat with each feeling as the came .. I wasn’t going to numb you out and I wasn’t going to relapse back into to addiction.. i wanted to feel every part of our friendship and every emotion i have for you… and will always come in waves and it always lands on love .. i wish we had more time together before you chose to exit .. i will love you for the rest of this lifetime and you better believe I’ll find you in our next 🫶💔😢"

"This message is for anyone who reads it. May you live your life with the understanding that it's ok to make mistakes. It's ok to feel low. It's ok to just be you without compromise. Everyone is flawed and that's what makes humanity so beautiful. Keep on going! You got this! "

You are loved

"You are never alone, you are worthy of love and support, you are never a burden. And you never know how precious you are to those around you even when you’re not your best self. There is always a chance to turn your life around; even a quiet life, a less materialistic life, a humble life is worth fighting for. Sometimes the happiest person in the room is hiding an immense inner turmoil. Don’t turn your back on your loved one just because they are acting out of turn or out of sorts. A kind word and a compassionate gesture can prevent a tragic outcome. There is always a small joy to be found in every day, there is always a way through an overwhelming life chapter. It’s ok to walk away from the thing you thought was your calling, it’s ok to change your mind, it’s ok to say no to the thing that’s breaking your spirit. Keep yourself safe and sometimes we can find solace in the most unlikely places, do the kind deed for a stranger. We’re all in this one life together. Look out for one another and offer a smile, a story, a kind deed or a small favour. It can have a bigger impact than you know. "

- M.G

To Everyone

"We all go thru difficult times and cope differently as well. Despite that please know that you are not alone, please reach out when you feel like its getting out of hand and it okay not to be okay all the time what matters is you are making an effort to make it through the day. "

“Are you okay?” and staying present long enough to hear the answer.

"I imagine you are somewhere above us, hoping we learn how to respond with greater care to the crisis here below. We hear you. We remember the loved ones who found this world too difficult to remain in. By stepping out of the shadows and speaking openly about suicide, we honor them. These can be difficult words to say—even among family and close friends—but silence can leave people feeling more alone. Their lives will not be forgotten. During my Walk for a Cause, I shared this message with a 94-year-old woman who regularly walks the streets in my neighborhood. If I can start a conversation about suicide with her, then each of us can find the courage to have these conversations with the people in our own lives. Support is available. Trained crisis professionals are only a phone call away. I encourage you to practice with someone you trust—a friend, family member, or colleague—what you might say if you were worried about a loved one. Let them know you have noticed something is not right, that they do not have to face it alone, and that help is available. In my work, I sometimes call a crisis line with a client beside me and the phone on speaker. The crisis worker can then explain what a typical call is like and help make the process feel less intimidating for someone experiencing emotional distress, mental-health concerns, suicidal thoughts, or thoughts of acting on a suicide plan. Anything unfamiliar can feel awkward at first. You do not need to have the perfect words or get everything right. You only need to be willing to begin the conversation. If someone seems unusually withdrawn, low, anxious, hopeless, is giving away belongings, or is behaving in ways that concern you, reach out. Ask how they are doing. Listen without judgment. Remind them that they matter—and that help is available. Courage does not mean having all the answers; sometimes it simply means asking, “Are you okay?” and staying present long enough to hear the answer."

"John (not a real name) was a good schoolmate, friendly, and we played cricket together and got up to mischief as teenagers. Life changed; we drifted apart but kept occasional contact, and both got married and had kids. Last year, it came as a shock that he committed suicide. Didn't see that coming: successful career, well off, loving family... So, I am walking 63 KM this year in your memory; no one has to go through the pain and leave behind a grieving family. Support Lifeline so that one phone call to Lifeline means one life saved!"

"I found myself lost, alone, felt unwanted, didn’t even know who I was. It took no less than a few seconds and I found myself in a place I had never expected. I woke and I was I hospital wondering how I had even done such a thing, realising I’d let all the darkness make decisions for myself that were all wrong. I’m now a survivor living with a second chance. Now been so close to the end has me feeling like I’m going to be a stronger version of myself before all of this. I will be here for anyone that wants or needs me step in the way of the darkness making decisions. For me to do this is the gift I’ve been giving and I call it the Second Chance at Life."

" I am walking the 9km this year in memory of Tahlia, who died by suicide this year. I am walking in support of all those who are struggling with the loss of a loved one from suicide. I am walking in support of those facing their darkest moments in the hope that they know they are not alone. "

"There were moments when everything felt too heavy, when you couldn’t make sense of what you were feeling or see how things could ever get better. But somehow, you kept going. You made it through the days you didn’t think you could, and the nights that seemed like they would never end. You kept taking one step at a time, even when you had no idea where those steps would lead. Today, I’m walking these 9km for anyone who is quietly struggling, carrying pain they don’t know how to put into words. If you’re reading this and you’re having a hard time, please stay. You don’t need to have everything figured out. You don’t need to know what tomorrow looks like. Just give yourself the chance to see what comes next. One day, you may look back and realise that the life you couldn’t imagine was still waiting for you. This walk is my reminder that there can be a life beyond the pain. Keep going. One day at a time. You’re worth staying for 🩵"

I miss you terribly, and I hate that we lost you. But I'm so grateful to have known you. My love to you always, Ange."

Telena

"63km. 7 days. One step at a time. 💙 I’m walking for mental health, depression and suicide awareness. I’m walking for myself, and for every person who has struggled, is struggling, or has ever felt like they had to fight their battles alone. The struggle doesn’t always just disappear. Some days are easier than others, and sometimes simply putting one foot in front of the other is an achievement. But having people around you, having support available, and knowing there is somewhere to turn can make the biggest difference. Over these 7 days, every kilometre means something. For the battles people see. For the battles they don’t. For those still fighting. For those we’ve lost. And for the people who stand beside us when we need them most. 63km for awareness. 63km for support. 63km to remind people that reaching out matters. One step. One kilometre. One day at a time. 💙"

I walk in her honour, but also for every person who has felt like they had no way out, and for every family left behind carrying the pain. I know what it feels like to struggle. I know how dark life can feel when you believe there is no other option. My hope is that by sharing Mum’s story, we can remind people they are not alone. That asking for help is not weakness. That one conversation, one person reaching out, one moment of support can save a life. Mum, I wish you were here to see this. I carry your love, your memories, and your story with me every step of the way. Forever loved. Forever missed. 💚 Happy heavenly birthday 10/9/65-29/04/09"

For Little Me

"I am taking the time during my walk to do a lot of reflecting; as a kid, I never imagined what life would look like in the future because every year I was not sure if I would get through it.

"I don’t think I’ll ever have the right words for how much it hurts that you’re not here. There are still moments where it doesn’t feel real. Moments where I wish more than anything that I could see you again, hear your voice, give you one more hug, or just have one more ordinary moment with you. I would give anything for that. My heart breaks knowing how much pain you must have been carrying while still being such a beautiful person to everyone around you. You had the most gentle and pure soul, and a heart that cared so deeply. Even when you were struggling yourself, you still made sure the people around you felt loved, supported and comforted. You gave so much of yourself to others, even when you were hurting more than any of us truly knew. I just wish you could have seen yourself through our eyes. I wish you knew how loved you were. How much you mattered. How much your presence meant. How many people would give anything to have you back. There are so many “I wish I hads” and “what ifs” that come with losing you, and some days they are unbearable. I wish I could go back and tell you everything I know now. I wish I could have taken even a little bit of that pain away from you. Most of all, I just wish you were still here. I miss knowing that you exist somewhere in this world. I miss the person you were, your beautiful heart, and the life you should still be living. I hope wherever you are now, your mind is finally quiet. I hope you’re surrounded by all the things you loved — nature, peace, and the most beautiful garden imaginable. I hope somehow you know that you are still so deeply loved down here. Tomorrow, I’ll walk every one of those 9 kilometres with you in my heart. Every step will be for you, and for every person who has ever felt the kind of pain you carried so quietly. I would walk a million more if it meant I could bring you home. I love you. I miss you more than words could ever explain, and I’ll carry you with me for the rest of my life. 🤍🌿"

Anita Ajing

"A Tribute to Myself To the girl I was when life felt too heavy, I see you. I see all the years you spent carrying things you were never supposed to carry alone. I see the days you smiled when you were hurting, the nights you cried quietly, and the moments when you genuinely wondered whether you could keep going. You struggled with your mental health from such a young age. There were times when the pain became so overwhelming that you had thoughts of ending your life. You didn’t always know how to explain what you were feeling, and sometimes you probably didn’t even understand it yourself. But somehow, you stayed. Not because everything suddenly became easy. Not because you always felt hopeful. You stayed through the days you didn’t want to. You stayed through the nights that felt endless. You stayed long enough to become the person standing here today. And I am so proud of you for that. I want to thank the younger version of me for surviving things she never thought she’d have to. I want to forgive her for the times she struggled, for the times she felt like she wasn’t enough, and for every moment she thought she was a burden. She was never a burden. She was a young girl who needed love, patience, understanding and someone to tell her that her life was worth fighting for. And now I get to tell her. Your life is worth fighting for. There is so much you haven’t experienced yet. So many people you haven’t met, places you haven’t seen, dreams you haven’t reached, and versions of yourself you haven’t become. You made it through the chapters that nearly broke you. Now you get to write the chapters that heal you. This isn’t a tribute to the pain. It’s a tribute to me. To my strength. To my resilience. To every morning I woke up. To every time I chose one more day. To the girl who didn’t know how she’d make it, but did anyway. I am still here. And I am not finished with my story. Chapter 18 is not the end. It’s proof that I made it this far. The best chapters are still waiting for me."

It’s been a part of my life for a long time. How I fell when I think about all your deaths and how it makes me feel reminds me that I don’t want to put my family and friends through that pain. So I’m walking the walk because it puts that black dog at bay "

To all who suffer, and those that help the suffering.

"I’m doing this for you, all of you. The last time I raised money and awareness for Lifeline was largely for myself way back in 2013. I ran the Sydney Marathon to show myself I could do anything, to build my mental resilience and in doing this I chose to raise money for Lifeline. In choosing to raise money for Lifeline I started to speak to others about my own battles, not much detail but just shared the mental load I had carried for so long, having only occasionally shared things with my rock, my wife now of 30 years, Tanya. In doing this sharing I realised how helpful it is to talk, so here I am again, many years later, raising funds for Lifeline to enable those that feel they have no one or feel they need professional help to have an avenue for that help. With Lifeline available, no one is ever alone. Please pick up the phone, text, chat or even talk to someone, share the load, it really does help and be the beginning of a much happier life for you, those you love, and those that love you. 131114"

"For Dylan, You are loved, you are missed, and you will never be forgotten. I hope by taking part in this walk, we can help shine a little light into someone else’s darkest moments and remind them that they never have to face them alone. Your life mattered. Your story mattered. And your memory will continue to matter."

"I still struggle to understand why you had to leave this world so soon. There are so many things I wish I could say to you, so many memories I wish we could make, and so many moments I wish I could relive with you. You were more than my best friend. You were my safe place, my confidant, my laughter, and a part of my heart. I will forever treasure the conversations, the smiles, the silly moments, and all the memories we shared. Although your life was far too short, the love you gave and the memories you left behind will stay with me forever. I hope you are finally at peace, free from the pain you carried silently. I miss you more than words can say. Your absence will always hurt, but I will carry your memory with me for the rest of my life. Until we meet again, my beautiful friend. You will never be forgotten. ❤️🕊️"

"Not a day goes past when I don't think, dream or miss you. You were so loved and the world is not the same since you left us. I promise to fight for you and all those that feel as you did every day. I walk for all those that fear the unknown, but take the step into it. At 15, you had so much more to do, but I take comfort that you are at peace, watching over us all. "

"I am walking in remembrance of my handsome baby brother Mahonlai. He was only 13 years old when his life was cut short. I miss you more than you know mahonlai. Best little brother anyone could’ve asked for❤️‍🩹 He was the most selfless little guy I knew. He loved to play video games with his friends, play with his niece & definitely enjoyed teasing his sisters. He had the biggest smile, the cutest big laugh. We still had so much growing to do together. We were supposed to grow together, still had so many birthdays to celebrate & a bunch of memories we were supposed to continue making. I love you so much my brother. 13 Years of loving & growing with you, a lifetime of grieving you❤️‍🩹 Forever13 "

Out of the Shadows 🖤

"Suicide awareness is something close to my heart. I’ve had moments where the darkness felt overwhelming, and I’ve experienced what it’s like to struggle just to keep moving forward. I’m grateful to have made it through those moments, but I’ve also learned that overcoming something doesn’t mean the battle disappears forever. Some days are harder than others. Healing isn’t always a straight line, and sometimes simply getting through the day is an achievement in itself. That’s why we need to keep talking. We need to check in on one another, listen without judgement, and remind people that they don’t have to carry their pain alone. If you’re walking through your own darkness right now, please keep going. Reach out. Tell someone. Take it one day, one hour, or even one moment at a time. There is life beyond the shadows, even when you can’t see it yet. Keep carrying on. Keep reaching out. Keep choosing another day. For everyone walking Out of the Shadows — you are not alone. 🖤 #SuicideAwareness #OutOfTheShadows #MentalHealthAwareness #KeepGoing #YouAreNotAlone"

Hannah Rachael Pratt

"For my beautiful daughter, Hannah 💙 My darling girl, I would give anything for you to still be here. You were only 25, and there was still so much life waiting for you — so many birthdays, adventures, ordinary days, laughs and memories that we should have had together. I hope you knew how deeply you were loved. I hope you knew how much you mattered. And I hope, wherever you are, you can see just how many hearts you left your footprints on. I don’t want you to ever be remembered simply for the way you died. You were so much more than that. You were Hannah. You were my beautiful, funny, cheeky girl with that unforgettable laugh. You were a daughter, sister, aunty and friend. You were loved then, you are loved now, and you will be loved for as long as we are here to say your name. I am walking Out of the Shadows for you, sweetheart, and I will carry you with me every step. I couldn’t save you, but I will keep telling your story in the hope that another person might stay, another person might reach out, and another family might never have to know how this feels. I miss you beyond words. Forever 25. Forever my daughter. Forever my Hannah. 💙 Her laugh will resound in our hearts forever. Love you always and forever, Mum xxx"

I have a favourite memory of you and I, your sister and I were dancing along to Peter Andre to which you insisted on teaching us the correct dance moves with your jeans hanging low slightly exposing your boxer briefs. You were highly entertaining, forever making life fun. You are so sadly missed by all who knew you. Sleep peacefully "

Brooke

"I've decided to join this fundraiser because the last couple of months lifeline has saved me on multiple occasions. I reached the lowest point in my life and I am so incredibly grateful for Lifeline and the support I have received over the years. They are one of the reasons that I am still here today, sitting at my computer, able to type this on my keyboard. I have struggled with depression and anxiety since puberty, and it only got worse as I got older. I turned to alcohol and became an alcoholic. I am now sober, and I want to give back to those who helped me get here, because the words 'Thank you' simply do not feel like enough. It breaks my heart knowing how many others have also/are currently in the darkest of dark places that I've also personally been. My heart goes out to anybody struggling. Talking to someone does help. You are never alone. "
