A Brief Note on Suicide and its Prevention
Included in this video is the best wisdom I have ever received on the subject of suicide prevention. I encourage anybody who views this video to place your own wisdom down below. Extra resources are included below and in the pinned comment (this list will be updated concurrently).
Resources I Have Used Frequently:
1. 7cups.com
A website where you can be paired with random people who will listen to your problems and walk through them with you. As well, you can be paired with trained therapists.
2. [email protected]
This is an e-mail address I have used for years. Trained professionals will respond to your e-mails within 24 hours and offer resources ideal for your circumstances.
3. Coaches
The link included below will take you to a video I did recently. In it, a "coach" named John Tucker speaks about the benefits of coaching and how coaches will be matched according to your specific diagnoses and issues. I also speak about how helpful John has been as my personal coach.

4. Distress Centres
Sometimes you might need to call a suicide hotline, but at other times you just need somebody to hear you out on the phone; somebody who will refer you to services you could use, or maybe just somebody that will listen. I know most of viewers don't live in Canada, like I do, but if you are looking for a service like this, I recommend visiting this website, getting in contact with them, and they will refer you to a similar service near your location.

(NOTE: If anybody who is watching this knows of a similar service near your location, leave a comment and I will add it to this list).
More resources will be added as I come across them.
