Suicide is a permanent solution to your temporary problems.

Today I found out that a student at the high school I teach at committed suicide. She was a senior, a good student, and a very intelligent young lady.
It saddens me that many young people should feel that ending their life is the best way to solve any problem.
PLEASE, IF YOU KNOW OF ANYONE WHO IS DEPRESSED OR FEELS OVERWHELMED WITH LIFE, TELL SOMEONE. GET THEM HELP.

Thing is..... those that really plan to do it, dont tell anyone.

And what help do you propose to get them ?

Ive called suicide lines, help lines, gone to womens aid, .... and its pointless - these people have no idea of your pain, or helping sort your inner chaos, or how to help you .

All they do is listen and then think they've done their job and forget about you once youve hung up.

The only way to help these people is to step into their pain with them and commit to guiding them out ....day, by day, by day .

.... and no ones gonna do that .

Im sorry,
....but its the truth .🤷😓
