September is Su***de Awareness Month.
But let’s be honest—awareness isn’t enough.
People don’t die because we don’t know about su***de.
They die because they feel invisible.
They die because they believe the world would be lighter without them in it.
They die because silence feels safer than saying, “I’m not okay.”
So here’s the truth no poster or campaign can fix alone:
If you love someone, tell them.
If you notice someone pulling away, reach for them.
If you’ve been carrying the weight yourself, please—don’t carry it alone.
You don’t have to fix the pain to save a life.
You just have to show up.
Again. And again. And again.
Because sometimes the smallest proof that we matter—a text, a call, a steady presence—
is the thread that keeps someone here.
