If Someone Tells You They’re Thinking About Suicide
National Suicide & Crisis Lifeline
If someone you know is struggling emotionally or having a hard time, you can be the difference in getting them the help they need. It’s important to take care of yourself when you are supporting someone through a difficult time, as this may stir up difficult emotions. If it does, please reach out for support yourself.

Teen Handbook on Depression
We have found that educating people about depression and suicide is one of our best tools in helping to treat psychiatric illness and prevent suicide. This handbook has been designed to help educate teens about their illness. We hope that the information will help you remain hopeful and know that all difficult situations can improve without your needing to resort to suicide or any self-harming behavior.
