Suicide Prevention

[Mermaid Syaira]

There are times in people's lives when everything seems worthless, when you feel as if nothing good could ever happen, when you feel like your life means nothing and you feel like giving up, that all your problems will leave you if you kill yourself.
Killing yourself is never the answer. You have people who will support you even if you don't know them face-to-face. I will support you as others will.
Giving up is not the answer. Giving up only causes more pain and suffering for those around you.
so I ask you not to give up... There is a light at the end of the tunnel. You WILL get through.
And in the end you will be a stronger person because of it.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE

I'm not considering suicide but my friend is... and I know that many people consider it. I'm just offering support to those who do =)

Hey :) this is a nice idea but might I suggest you change the title to something a little more encouraging? Having just the word "suicide" there with no context at all could be a trigger for some people.
