  • 2. Dad’s Suicide
    Knock knock. Who’s there? Not today, just one more day.

    • Don’t just tell them you’re here if they want to talk. Check in regularly with a, “Hey, just checking in. How are you doing?”
    • Don’t just copy+paste the Suicide hotline #, have a conversation with them.
    • Keep trying even if they say they want to be left alone. They may be distancing themselves in preparation to follow through with suicide.
    • Don’t take things personally. When a person is depressed, their body and mind are in pain. They will be cranky and negative.
