another possibility

p = Plot[x, {x, 0, 5}, Frame -> True, PlotRangeClipping -> False, 
  ImagePadding -> 20, 
  Epilog -> Style[Text["Tid", {1.5, -.35}, {0, 1}], Red]]

$\begingroup$ 
Plot[x, {x, 0, 5},
 Frame -> True,
 FrameTicks ->
  {{Automatic, None}, {{1, {1.5, "a"}, 2, 3, 4, 5}, None}}]

enter image description here

With some styling options:

Plot[x, {x, 0, 5},
 Frame -> True,
 FrameTicks ->
  {{Automatic, None}, {{1, {1.5, Style["a", Bold, Blue, 14]}, 2, 3, 4, 5}, None}},
 GridLines -> {Range[5], Automatic}]

    $\begingroup$ Notice that with this method, the minor ticks on the axes are now lost. $\endgroup$
