One of the hardest lessons any of us might ever have to learn in life is that beautiful things can break.

…of this means we need to speak up, and speak out, and make it okay to talk about, and to deal with. We need to break the silence.

Another main reason I want these rules to be broken is because if you have lost someone to suicide, you know it is different to losing them another way. You know that there is still such shame attached. You know that people who do it are still thought of by some as selfish and weak. You know people don’t understand, and won’t try to. You know they are much more uncomfortable talking about it than other types of death.
