You Can Be Free
The Early
Warnings,
People who are deeply depressed sometimes reach a
point at which living seems intolerable. Often, they
will give clues to this feeling by the things they
say. If you hear someone say any of the following,
take it seriously-there is a possibility of suicide,
and a help is recommended, life isn't worth living.
My family would be better off without me.next time
I'll take enough pills to do the job right, or you'll
be sorry when I'm gone.
"There's nothing I can do to make it better, or
other, similar statements.
Do not assume that the situation will correct itself.
Express your concern to the person who is saying these
things by showing that you are willing to listen and
to seek professional help for him or her from a
qualified doctor. This is a cry for help, or they
would have kept it a secret. There is still time to
help a poor depressed soul. Watch for signs of
depression, remember the life you save could be your
own. Seek help from a friend, family member, or
someone you trust. If you know God turn to Him, If you
don't know God ask, and you shall receive.
