This month reminds us that talking about suicide isn’t harmful — silence is. About 1 person dies by suicide in the U.S. every 11 minutes. While these numbers are daunting, it is vital to remember that one honest, caring conversation can save a life. Head over to nami.org to learn about the warning signs of suicide and how to provide support in a crisis.
If you or someone you know is struggling, help is here. Call or text 988 or chat 988lifeline.org to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline 24/7.
