Eighty per cent of people thinking about suicide send out a warning, and about 80 per cent of lethal suicides follow an earlier attempt. There are about 20-40 suicide attempts for every completed suicide. A suicide attempt is the strongest predictor of future death by suicide.
If you are in crisis and possibly having thoughts about suicide, please take steps immediately to find the help you need. It may be difficult, but there are many people and organizations wanting to help you.
This site is not a crisis service and cannot provide any counselling or crisis intervention. We strongly recommend that you seek guidance from a professional caregiver. Please go to the nearest emergency room if you need immediate assistance. We encourage you to talk to a friend or family member who can help you or help you find care from a health professional.
