I could add stats like
Sometimes life can be overwhelming and suicide may seem like the only way to relieve the pain.
1 in 6 Australians will have thoughts of suicide at some point during their lives. Suicidal thoughts are common but they can pass. You don’t need to act on them.
On this page we’ll help you find information and support if you’re feeling suicidal, supporting someone else or have lost someone to suicide.
If you’re in crisis right now, support is available.
