World Suicide Prevention Day: 2019

Each year, 800,000 people die by suicide. That’s one person every 40 seconds. For each death, there are an additional 25 attempts. The lies: Suicide cannot be prevented. It’s not okay to talk about your mental health. Asking for help makes you weak. The truth: Your pain is valid. It is okay to not be okay. There is hope. There is help. And you deserve both. In honor of World Suicide Prevention Day (September 10), we’re working to help prevent suicide and to share a universal message that you and so many others deserve to hear: You make today better.
