                                            Mental health is not something that should be taken lightly. If you know someone who has ever threatened to harm themselves or take their own life, don't shrug it off, don't ignore it, don't take it as impossible, more importantly don't leave that person alone. I believe that with every su***de or self inflicted death committed, we failed that person. More often than not, there are always warning signs that people miss or don't take seriously - something that they said or did that went unnoticed. Usually by the time we realise what they were trying to tell us, it's too late and we're left to mourn them. It is my goal not to fail anyone else. Everytime I hear or read of another case, it saddens me to my core and I can't shake it for a while because I feel like we let them down. How long do we have to fail them before we get it right? On behalf of all of us, I'm sorry.
