Today is World Suicide Prevention Day.

I have decided to share information on social media.

The most recent data (2014) tells us that there were 42,773 suicides in the United States. That is 117 per day. One every 12 minutes. Twenty veterans commit suicide every day.

We need to talk about this. We need to get a handle on this mental health crises.
