CRISIS RESOURCES
YOU MATTER . . . the world is a better place with YOU in it! If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts, overcome by anxiety, depression know that you are NOT ALONE and you can get the help you DESERVE. I beg you to take a pause, call 988.. Talk out your feelings… you will not be judged! I get it, you feel the stigma and do not want to be judged. Suicide is a preventable outcome. Read the semicolon ; story below. This is why I decided to get a ; tattoo on my left ankle… for YOU! Project semicolon is a grassroots organization created to let you know; YOU MATTER.
“A semicolon is used when an author could’ve chosen to end their sentence, but chose not to. The author is YOU, and the sentence is your life.”
