> And let me remind you that there is nothing more important than your life.
> Nothing.
> 
> My name is Kevin Caruso. I am the Executive Director of Suicide.org and I
> would like to share some important information with you. The first thing that
> I want you to know is that virtually every person that I have talked with who
> attempted suicide, and survived, was glad that they lived. So the emotions
> that were causing the suicidal feelings did pass. Things got better; the sun
> did come out. So, let me extend that hope to you.
> 
> If you are in intense emotional and/or physical pain, remember that your
> judgment is being clouded by that pain. If you are considering suicide, you
> are trying to end that pain. Please do not confuse ending your pain with
> ending your life. The two are very different.
> 
> Let me also tell you that if you are suicidal, you probably are suffering from
> clinical depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, postpartum depression,
> PTSD, or something similar. And if you have something along these lines, you
> actually have a chemical imbalance in your brain -- and you cannot possibly
> think straight because of it. That is beyond your control. You are not weak.
> You just need some treatment. This imbalance can occur for several reasons,
> from genetics to a traumatic life experience, and it is extremely common for
> people to have this imbalance, so do not feel like you are alone. You are not.
> 
> This imbalance may be rectified in several ways, but first you need to be
> assessed so that the cause may be understood. I would request that you please
> go to a medical doctor.
> 
> The doctor can determine if there is a secondary problem (such as a thyroid
> problem) that is causing the imbalance. If so, an appropriate medication may
> be prescribed to you. Next, you should visit a therapist. This will allow
> another assessment to occur and will also allow you to begin talking about
> your feelings. If the therapist determines that you need a prescription, he or
> she may refer you to someone who may assist you in that area.
> 
> Please leave the option open for taking medication. Some people erroneously
> believe that they can simply use will power to control their suicidal
> feelings. The problem with this thinking is that, again, there is probably a
> chemical imbalance in the brain. And that needs to be treated with medicine.
> So let me ask you this, my friend. If you had a broken leg, would you get
> treatment or would you just keep walking on it, writhing in pain, and trying
> to convince yourself that you just needed will power to overcome the pain? You
> would get treatment, and you would do so immediately. You would not even think
> twice about it. And I would most respectfully submit to you that your
> situation is similar. If you are diagnosed with clinical depression, or
> something similar, then there is a physical cause for your condition. And you
> need to seek treatment immediately. It is not just emotion. Please understand
> this, my friend. The brain, after all, is an organ. And sometimes needs
> treatment.
> 
> If you cannot afford to see a doctor or therapist, please seek out some
> clinics that have reduced rates. There are many affordable places to go. You
> can call 1-800-SUICIDE (1-800-784-2433) or 1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255) to
> get listings for clinics in your area. Do not hesitate to call. You can also
> check in your phone book.
> 
> After your initial assessment, you will need to see a therapist long enough to
> work through all of the issues that are bothering you. Do not be in a hurry --
> things will get better. You may feel like you are on an emotional roller
> coaster ride, but those ups and downs will level out.
> 
> My friend, thank you so very much for being here. It means a lot to me because
> the mere fact you are here indicates that you are reaching out, and that you
> really do want to live. So, I want you to do something else that is very
> important. Please make a commitment to stay alive. To not die by suicide, no
> matter what. Make this commitment for all of the people who care for you, and
> for yourself. Remember that if you try to end your pain by ending your life,
> you will start a world of pain for the loved ones that you leave behind. And
> you will deprive yourself of many wonderful things that you have yet to
> experience.
> 
> Thank you for making that commitment.
> 
> Now, my friend, I have told you the things that you should do. So, please get
> started. Please make an appointment right now to see a doctor and a therapist.
> If you can't do it now, do it as soon as possible. I care about you very much,
> and I love you very much, so I want you to get better as soon as possible.
> 
> One final thing. Relax. That's right. Relax. Take some deep breaths and do
> something that you enjoy that relaxes you. Take a bath. Go for a walk. Listen
> to some nice music. Just take it easy. And engage in these activities that
> relax you on a regular basis. And let me tell you, my friend, you are on your
> way. On your way to a better life.
> 
> Always remember that there are phone numbers that you can call
> 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,
> from any location in the United States:

> Take care of yourself, and take action now. Your life is extremely important.
