Opinion: Suicide is an epidemic with disastrous, painful effects
Tom Watkins
Please don’t take your own life.
If you believe that today is the worst day of your life, by definition tomorrow will be better.
People care and are there to help you navigate the feeling that it can’t and won’t get better. With love, support and professional help, there is a better tomorrow.
Reach out to family members, colleagues and friends struggling, especially during this time of COVID-19 that has exasperated the feelings of hopelessness, loneliness and depression.
Suicide is an epidemic in this state and the nation and requires awareness and resources to address.
