Suicide. I know. Let’s start with the elephant in the room. I know it’s a dark and looming topic. We want to avoid it. Believe me, I know.
And, that is why I am here. With the elephant. And he’s a big one. And you clicked the link, but you’re terrified. The anxiety. The dread.
We hear a lot about suicide these days. And it’s hard. It’s a lot. I know your stomach drops. I know you feel sick. I know you can hardly bear to hear the tragic stories.
You know the statistics with teens and young adults, I assume, and I am not here to talk statistics. If you don’t know, It’s the second leading cause of death between ages 15–24. Still. STILL! With all of the increasing mental health awareness. But you do know that, don’t you?
