so sorry for your loss e wahine Jade, may Mr Atkins RIP. Thankyou for being brave to tell his story, it's much appreciated. Not all inmates will want the new facility, but if it means saving a few from the busling crowd that want the help, kei te pai. All the very best.

Our mental health system is 💩 short staffed, without resources, and people wanting help but not wanting to do the work. It takes partnership between the client AND service. Therapies, counselling etc is not a one stop shop, you have to want to change your life. One love whanau ✌️

Speak up now or forever hold your say, reach out an seek help. ❤ Don't be afraid whether it's a relationship breakup, mental health issues,drugs,trauma etc. If you don't ask you won't receive.

As a Maori, my hearts goes to the kids who are born to these types of whanau. My father is a true east coast Maori, hard af worker, an amazing husband, father and koro. Im so grateful I grew up in a loving household. Turn away from the ganglife, there is a much bigger legacy you can leave behind 🤍 These gangs wont be visiting you at the ururpa when your gone, your kids will and surely you want them to think the world of you when your no longer here.

The suicide is a generational curse. Which can only be broken in the name of Jesus. This is a sad story

Stay Strong Girl.

You need a women like her on your team

Yes we need our kaumatuas the most ❤

Do you think the system let him down - “ definitely” How about taking responsibility for your own life and not rely on the “system”

Put the patch down and stand on ur own like a man, that wud of been the first bit of advice, 2nd throw that P pipe away and get into work and fittness, rugby etc, im sure if he spoke with his prezz they would b understanding if he wanted to pull away from the gang life to focus on his well being, R.i.P bro

Where were the frogs when this brother needed them ? Frog Life

No more excuses too better oneself if you have your own family wear the patch of arohanui oku whanau

It doesn't help when your on drugs and somebody else is in your head bad doings not owning people back stuffed someone's life up Being hard missing someone's day up there so much to it

Tragic tamariki born into gangs don't have a choice tino pouri.😢

Rip Tuta bro

Rip brother

Armon Tamatea is one of the best minds in the country around what works for our people.

🎵Tiptoe through the tulips… with meeeeee eeeeeeee… 😈

Suicide mental health is a state of torment in the mind. But if you believe 2 Timothy 1:7 For the Lord has not given us a Spirit of Fear but Power , Love and a Sound Mind.

He tino pōuri tēnei kōrero, ka tuku aroha kia koe e Hine. Moe mai rā Bonus, kua wehe atu koe tōmua, he pōuri 😢

Zero sum game! Comes to ruin, kill and destroy. The illusion of pride and ego. Only the system wins here. All heading to the cliff edge.

Sad 😢

Whanau, blood, gang, or friends, we are first responders - offer a listening ear, a hug, a prayer & if you know of some support reach out - Love n blessings to our whanau - kia kaha ❤❤❤❤

Doing da pukanas with the glass taiaha lol

All we need to do is give up the gang and drugs it takes your soul and time away from your family because that is the main reason why we lost so many young lives I didn't think that's the life my bro wanted just didn't have the right people to be around when he needed that help the most RIP brother

Fk that's heavy RIP brotha bouns

What a beautiful whahine❤ ..so sorry for your loss..

It's the black power to

There has to be gang members that can communicate with their members on issues like mental health Whakawhanaungatanga financial issues & the hidden histories of Indigenous People’s World Wide, suicidal tendencies in my opinion is all about fear, a fear that comes from the Colonial System through English a Spell Casting Colonial Matrix Program commonly known as a language. 👁️⚫️🌍🌎🌏☠️👽✨☮️

Much love ❤. It's hard when their attached to the gang and it's thier normal. Breaking that cycle and.going against the grain of their peers

2 of my brothers committed suicide in 2020 & 2022 neither of my brothers were gangstas, neither of them had gone to jail, the first who took his life was on meth. Where my brothers ate concerned the family support was there, the mental health services were there but besides trying to say my brother was suffering from a P induced psychosis they didn't know what was wrong then decided to give him a pill for psychosis, a pill for depression, a pill for bi polar and I pill for anxiety which I thought the pills all at the same time, considering what they were for would of fugged him up more than anything or been pointless cause wouldn't they cancel each other out?! Personally I think gangs and drugs play a part for some but not all if anything they want some bullsheeit to stop and death seems to be the only thing that works to do that 😢 I hope and pray all suicide deaths find the peace they wanted from life in death 🎗 #FukSuicide

In a better place with his people #arohamai #kiakaha

Pity for a mob member please! Imagine the harm he caused family’s and helped others to be atics

Real growin up men put a hi vis on and go to work every day having direction

Speaking up can also be the final straw too cause you finally speak up and nothing happens it smacks u down even more, theres no hope truth hurts.

The interviewer needs to lower her damn head..looking like she's looking down on everyone she talking to 😂

Gangster flops

The system didn’t fail him. His “brothers” failed him.

Really? Looking for sympathy?

The choice is yours, choose the the narrow path or the wide path, Jesus is the ONLY WAY The TRUTH and the LIFE, repent and turn to God, God bless our kiwi friends.
