18m · Parenting Sucks: A Community for Struggling Parents · 04 Dec 18:35

Suicide effects everyone around us. But how do we help? How do we know what to do and when to do it? How do we know when we're crossing the line? In this episode, we list some signs to help identify when our loved ones are in a desperate situation. And what we can do to try and save a life. 

Remember suicide is not an act of selfishness. Be kind at all times. Check on others as often as possible, even when they are smiling.
