Re. Suicide. I have a request.

I have a request to make of you. It won't take much effort on your part, it will just require you to care a little bit. 

If you have a Web Page, a Blog, a YouTube account, a Google+, Tumblr, Instagram, EyeEm, Twitter, a Mailing List, Community, or Forum, I would like to ask you to add something to your pages. Maybe just a monthly reminder to your followers or a tweet once in a while reminding people that suicide is not the answer and that there are people out there working to help in whatever way they can. 

Include, if you will, these links: 

National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
1-800-273-TALK (8255)
http://www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org/

Veterans Crisis Line
1-800-273-8255 Press 1
http://www.veteranscrisisline.net/

Suicide.org
http://www.suicide.org/
Includes Hotline numbers by state http://www.suicide.org/suicide-hotlines.html

 and get the word out. Hell, all you have to do is copy and paste this. It's easy. 

OK, I'll make it even easier, just include this on a page, up front and center 

Suicide is never the answer
