" I wish my friends 15 yr old granddaughter could have read this before she made another suicide attempt Friday night. She is on a
ventilator, in a induced coma, and they know her heart is damaged.
So tragic. Thank you for having this available for me. I haven't made
an attempt for 3 yrs and I am so grateful. "

" One thing we have learned here is that there is not a single magic cure that will work for all of us. The link posted here will, in all likelihood, work for many; in fact it is bound to have profoundly positive influences on some.

But to balance it, there are some who will remain unaffected by this, and some who reel against approaches like this. "

" i am going to agree with Donna, this is a good site if i may add, but a suicidal person is not in a rational mind and therefore needs to be taken in a more . . . concrete solution I.E taken to the hopsital via ambulance or cops, before they do it and held their under suicide watch.

if a person was really suicidal they would not post about it in the first place, adn therefore would just do it. "
