I really questioned if I should post information about suicide on the IAS Message Board; but then I remembered having read that "just talking about suicide DOES NOT cause people to commit suicide; and that it is better to help this person to talk about any suicidal thoughts he/she may have."

It is when people don't talk openly about topics such as this, that tragic problems happens. The following website has excellent information!! - - - -

[] Suicide is not chosen; it happens when pain exceeds resources for coping with pain.

[]> You can survive suicidal feelings if you do either of two things:

1.) Find a way to reduce your pain, or

2.) Find a way to increase your coping resources."
