Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs said that's where everyone can help out.
"Suicide is one of the things that we don't like to talk about, obviously, but it's something that we need to talk about," Mayor Jacobs said. "Just because you can't see a problem like we can if we have a physical ailment, doesn't mean that it's not there and it's not real."
Jacobs said no matter what happens, it's important to remember that there is always hope.
"If you don't go on, you're never going to know what tomorrow might hold," he said. "There's a lot of people out there that really do care, that really do love you and want to help and want to love on you."
