Do share posts from this site or other sites to promote suicide prevention. Here are some suggestions.

‘My son has admitted he is suicidal. What do I do now?’

T-shirts are still for sale. Many of you have asked what the proceeds support. When I run a campaign that has a “donation” blank, those proceeds go to a charity. Because I do not accept advertising or articles from questionable resources for this site for money, I use the funds I might make on t-shirts to offset the $1k per year that it costs to support this website–hosting fees, hacking protection etc. It’s not a big money maker and covers about 15% of that.
