1. See The Signs

Is someone I know considering suicide?

  • The person is isolated from family and friends.
  • Have they changed radically (eating or sleeping too much or little, engaging risky behavior like driving too fast).
  • The person makes statements about nobody listening to them, wanting to die, or not being around for much longer.

2. Save a Life

How do I reach out to this person?

  • Listen seriously to the person. Don't shrug it off like a joke or like it's not a big deal.
  • Talk to them directly, offering your support. Just knowing that somebody cares can be reassuring to your friend.
  • Tell the person to talk to a parent, counselor, or someone that they trust.
  • Also suggest help websites and phone numbers such as the helpline above or the organizations listed to the right.

3. Spread the Word

How do I tell others about this?

  • Use your Facebook or Twitter to share this page.
  • Post flyers around school and in the community with the name and contact info of counseling services so more people can confidentially reach out for help.
  • Volunteer with a suicide prevention organization.
  • Do a school project and present it in the class or at an assembly.
