Disclaimer I strive only to present fair, balanced answers to your most pressing issues related to the complicated feelings around suicide. It is not, however, to be interpreted as or mistaken for medical advice, diagnosis of a health condition or problem, or a treatment plan. Only your personal physician or other health providers–after careful consideration of your situation and medical history–can give you and your family personalized mental health or medical advice. I can’t properly offer one-size-fits-all through an eBook, I can only offer strategies that have worked for others. Never disregard the medical advice of your physician or health professional, or delay in seeking such advice, because of something you read in this eBook. While these tips help, they are not a guarantee that your loved one won’t take their life but rather lowers the risk that it may happen.
