People affected by suicidal thoughts often find it hard to identify someone to share their experience with. This paper introduces the idea of ‘personification’ as an alternative way to build companionship for people affected by suicidal thoughts. Used alongside art and documentation practices, the personified Moonlight Treasure Box helped four people dealing with suicidal thoughts and experiences to face loneliness, counter their problems and develop rich storylines.
