A white background featuring a large black hand-drawn semicolon next to text that explains how semicolons represent hope and the choice to continue one's story.

Semicolons always bring hope, hope that the story isn’t over yet, hope to the ones who chose to fight instead of ending it all.

Suicide is not selfish. Suicide is, normally, death caused by the illness of depression. It is the final symptom.

It's a myth that talking about suicide gives somebody the idea. Research consistently shows that asking somebody about suicide, even several times a day, doesn't cause or increase suicidal thoughts.

When someone shares thoughts of suicide, it’s not about having the “right” solution.
It’s about being present, listening, and helping them stay safe while guiding them toward support.
Lending a ear can go further than you think.
