If you've lost someone to suicide

You are not alone, and it is not your fault. Grief after suicide can last for years, as it has for our family. Talking with others who understand can help.

If you're worried about someone

Ask them directly if they're thinking about suicide. Asking does not put the idea in their head. Listen, stay with them, and help them call or text 988.
