Lost a friend recently and wanted to share.

If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts, please reach out.

Suicide is impulsive.

9 out of 10 people who attempt suicide and survive do not end up committing suicide.

Most people who attempt suicide do it less than an hour after deciding to.

Reaching out can help you through a rough spot and help you fully consider a choice you will never have the chance to take back.

I know a lot of people share the suicide hotline (1-800-273-8255 or for text-based support text START to 741741) but just sharing another option in case people feel it works better for them.
