REsources: Feeling Suicidal?

If you or a loved one is in crisis, please dial 988 to reach the the free, 24/7 National Suicide Prevention and Mental Health Crisis Lifeline.

A Brief Note

“Whether you are feeling suicidal or know someone who is, I grieve with you. Though I do not know your exact story, I have been in these situations, so I grieve with you. I know this list of resources may not be enough, and can even be daunting to look through when you are experiencing something so heavy such as this. But I encourage you to keep waiting, hold on, and reach out. Some people will fail to help, and you will be disappointed. But others will genuinely care, and I ask you to trust that humankind will help you through this. You are not alone.

Sincerely, Rachel
