A recent study showed that 1/4 of people attempting #suicide think about it for less than 5 minutes & almost 75% think about it for less than an hour before taking action. So, here's my request. We all need a safety plan posted somewhere where you can easily see it. Because one day, when that absolutely overwhelming moment comes where it feels impossible to go on, you need to have that tool right in arm's reach. Take the 5 minutes & make your safety plan. Do it now. #mentalhealth

I've never seen those stats before. That's a little frightening. It means just having a long-term opposition to the idea of suicide may not matter in the moment.
