selfish toyah should feel guilty

I think desperate Toyah will but Aidan did give his blessing by keeping her secret safe

[Perdita]

These have been the most difficult episodes to watch for me today ..

[lizann]

im a blubbering mess, gail's speech, johnny's tears, it all got to me

speak up anyone in a dark place, talk talk talk

[LizzyBizzy]

Having had an older brother commit suicide, I didn't watch it, though the choice not to watch was made easier by the fact watching Wednesday episodes isn't an option for me anyway. Trying to avoid it because it's such a difficult subject, given my mom is in her 90s and Corrie and Emmerdale are her main tv pleasures. It's also mental health awareness next week (I think). Can't imagine it was badly handled, torn between wishing they hadn't covered it for reasons of recalling a horrific family time, and opposite feelings of the fact they've tackled the issue.

sorry to hear that, take care

I'm acutely aware it's not a subject I can look at objectively.

There are times i wake up and check that a family member has not taken their life. So i cried and cried today

Don't watch, but shouldn't Eva feel guilty? She didn't want Aidan's baby.

[Splashy]

Aidans depression set in post his donating an organ. Well thats how I viewed it.. Im not in the know on the statistics or medical /mental issues of this but from what Ive read it is a synonym.

Beths comment about him being selfish made a devils advocate balance to the play.

All Toyah cares about is her need for a baby, yet another example on the show of mental distress and issues that drive good people to do dark things.
