Our dedicated team is here to support you through suicidal thoughts each step of the process as well as provide on demand resources for when we are not available.
There is a wide range of suicidal thoughts and gestures. It usually starts with a fleeting thought of "I can't take this anymore." It is important to give these thoughts the attention they deserve. Get help now, and reach out to those who love and support you.
We have worked with suicidal thoughts closely. When a patient is experiencing this, we first focus on safety. After this is established, we work closely on what are the root causes and closely curate a plan to move forward that honors your needs.
