CONTENT ADVISORY
The video episodes on this website address topics related to suicide. Viewer caution is advised. Please note: published research strongly suggests that asking someone if they have suicidal plans helps to prevent (not cause) suicide.
Asking someone if they have been unhappy or down or how they’re feeling can be hard sometimes. It’s harder still to ask them gently, “Are you thinking about killing yourself?”
But you might save a life that way…
Yes. You can ask a loved one or friend directly whether they are having suicidal thoughts.
If you have thoughts about harming yourself, call or text the Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988 in either the U.S. or Canada.
Or reach out through chat by visiting 988lifeline.org/chat.
In most countries, there’s a suicide and crisis hotline you can call if you want to die. In many countries you can even text instead of calling.
Such a simple thing to do. But that call or text can save a life.
Maybe yours.
Don’t kill yourself. Call or text a crisis hotline.
