SAFETY PLAN
NATIONAL PREVENTION LIFELINE NUMBER 1-800-273-TALK (8255) OR DIAL/TEXT 988
NOBODY KNOWS WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES OF LIFE WILL CAUSE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS, SO WHEN THEY HAPPEN IT'S TERRIFYING. PEOPLE NEED TO HAVE MATERIALS TO HELP PREPARE THEM AND TO HAVE SOMEONE SAY IT'S OK AND NORMAL TO HAVE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS SOMETIMES IN LIFE. THE WHOLE TOPIC OF SUICIDE IS SCARY, BUT IF PEOPLE HAVE RESOURCES TO USE, IT TAKES SOME OF THE SCARINESS AND POWER AWAY FROM THE WORD "SUICIDE". SUICIDE IS A CHOICE! SO IF WE CAN USE THESE TOOLS TO GET PREPARED AND SPREAD WORDS OF HOPE THROUGH INFO ON THIS WEBSITE AND OTHER WEBSITES AS WELL, MAYBE THE WORD "SUICIDE" WILL HAVE LESS OF A STRONG HOLD ON OURSELVES AND THOSE WE CARE ABOUT.
