National Suicide Prevention Month Fact of the Day: Many times people will exhibit warning signs if they are having suicidal ideations or have taken the next step and developed a plan. It’s important to know the signs and symptoms so that you can recognize them and get your loved ones the help they need. Some warning signs to look out for are people withdrawing from family and friends, giving away important possessions, saying goodbye to friends and family, taking great risks that could lead to death, such as driving extremely fast or substance use, and talking or thinking about death often. As always, if you, or someone you know, may be experiencing suicidal ideations or thoughts, please tell a trusted adult as soon as possible. Throughout all of these conversations, just know that you are all important, you are all loved, and you are all integral building blocks to the foundation of our HCS family and you are all needed in order for our HCS community to shine as bright as it does.
