Figure out how to help people with the goal "commit suicide"
everyone is helping, just by being there. 2 years ago

i couldn’t help everyone, and it pained me. but i did focus my attention to one girl and tried to help her, and as far as i know i either succeeded because she stopped posting on the commit suicide page and didn’t say anything about still wanting to commit suicide, or i failed. i don’t think ill ever really know. i think she made it. but i think the important thing is that i tried and the girl was really trying too. and all of you guys doing the same, that’s what’s really important. i think all of you are incredible people for stepping up to help others that are in need and cannot at this time help themselves. you are all wonderful. =]
much love,
laura.
