CAMBODIA – APRIL, 2017 A young Cambodian woman decided to end it all and committed suicide with sleeping pills. She swallowed a handful of them. Before her act, she shared a photo of the pills on her Facebook page. She added the caption, “This is one month’s worth of meds! If I swallowed it all at once, I would wake up and forget all the pain.”

If you’re thinking about suicide, please stop and recognize that your pain is not permanent, but this step would be. It may feel like there’s no other way, but there is hope, even if it’s hard to see right now. Your feelings are temporary, and with help, they can pass.
Talking about what you're going through might feel difficult, but it’s the first step toward healing. Don’t turn away from the people who want to support you. Life can offer more than what you're feeling right now, and the pain doesn't have to last forever. You deserve help, and it’s available.
If you need immediate help, please contact a helpline.
