When you're struggling with thoughts of suicide, it can feel like you're completely alone—but you’re not. In those darkest moments, connection can be life-saving. Reaching out to someone you trust, speaking your truth, or simply letting someone know you're hurting can open the door to hope and help. Your life matters, and there are people who care deeply—more than you may realize. You don’t have to face this alone.
September is Suicide Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness, offer support, and break the silence surrounding suicide. This month highlights the importance of early intervention, and reminds us all of the impact of compassion and connection. Together, we can help prevent suicide by providing resources, educating others, and fostering environments where people feel safe to seek help.
