Josh Hall It's a shame there isn't a hotline based in WA state's capitol, Olympia. I was looking into volunteer work, but the closest ones are over 70ish miles away. Has there been any consideration of opening one in the area?


Bernadette it is like cancer years ago...everyone is afraid...keep talking. i bet if you asked another, and another, everyone has thought of sucided. The difference is, most do not act. Keep talking so those who do not know how to (talk) will do so when they need to the most.


Charles Lineberg Why is suicide so hard to talk about, why cant we just come out and say how we feel?

Jason Lenz Do you really know what people are thinking ? Family, Friends ? Do not talk about people Help them, Lend a hand. Watch the loose comments you make during conversations and let others talk, this could save a life. Would you want to be the cause someone took their life ? Or the reason someone spared their life ? Get educated on suicide prevention and help people not hurt them. Reverse the role how would you feel ? THINK ABOUT IT, THIS IS NOT A JOKE, PEOPLE ARE KILLING THEMSELVES.


Iva what a joke.... no one can help. Family and friends turn their backs on you. They blame it on you for not having family to talk to. God... what God?! Oh and for you people who JUDGE! You have no right. You don't know what is going on in someones life!
Ellen at 9:30am June 16
Helping isn't always the same as fixing. It does help a lot of people to talk it through with someone who doesn't judge and who does care. I'm sorry you're hurting so badly. I see that you are in a storm, and I'll hold out hope that you will allow the storm to pass. In the meantime, Lifeline is here if you want to talk.


Charles Lineberg Thank you so much for this place.
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline `1-800-273-TALK' at 2:33pm June 13
You are very welcome, Charles. Thank you for being apart of the Lifeline page, and for helping others.


Michelle Stelly If I just think about killing myself daily and pray for God to take me out of this hell hole called Earth but I won't go through with killing myself do I need to worry or just let it pass?
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline `1-800-273-TALK' at 2:31pm June 13
If you are thinking about killing yourself daily please call Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) we can help you. We are here for you 24/7.


Bernadette at 4:44pm June 26
do anything to shift your mind! leave the room, go outside, breath, talk to a tree if no one is around. your life is important. unknowningly you will touch another just by a smile, a look. we all need each other. your loss of life WILL be felt. You ARE needed. life does suck, but it is also bright and beautiful...hang in there, reach out, we need each other on Earth.

Nicholas Nolan Dr. Joost A. M. Meerloo, MD - “As long as there is more dread of life then fear of death, death will tempt people with the promise of greater security then they can find in this lifetime — unless and until such time as we are able to teach man to accept and embrace his own destiny.” I've become driven to promote Suicide Prevention Advocacy. Please, get involved in any way you can.


Jennifer Storm Thank you for this resource...I helped save a girl last night who was in the middle of trying to kill herself. I didn't know this page was here. Thankfully I was able to use the police to track her down and they got to her in time. I am putting this page in my blog and on my webpage as many young people contact me about this issue as I am a survivor. www.jenniferstorm.com It is so important for young people to know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE!


Iva at 1:39pm June 13
Bullshit


Tonya Thanks for having the phone line available for everyone. you never know when it might save a life. Thanks


Marcia Epstein There are no people more special than those who call and those who staff the Lifeline. Please spread the word about the amazing support available through 1.800.273.TALK. And if you are in a good time of your life, in a city with a Lifeline center, consider volunteering or donating to help keep that support available.


Melissa Mitchell I almost did it Saturday night. I was so very close. Something made me call a friend. I don't feel I will ever be healed but my loved ones do... and I have to ride on their faith for now.


National Suicide Prevention Lifeline `1-800-273-TALK' Thank you, Jason, for your important message to others!
