Is life so bad that people are taking their lives? In the last 2 weeks we have had 1 soliders commit suicide and 1 attempt to. I guess there is not enough help out there in the world! Although how does a person get so bad and know one notice? I noticed lately that there has been a lot of talk about suicide is this blowing up so much and finally someone noticing?
Katina, Get in touch with Chief Jeff Dill and take a look at the work he us doing not only for suicide prevention / mitigation, but the aftermath that unfortunately includes the spouse and children. There is a recent FFN post that focuses on this issue.
