Good Morning,

Please be patient with this email; as I am struggling to write this.

On yesterday, I learned that our Affiliate President, Richard Payne lost a young person in his family to suicide. Chris Payne is his name and as Richard and I; as well as all of us know or have a young adult in our lives. Suicide is one of the leading causes of death among those who are 10 to 24. We all listen to the news, and read about the affects of mental illness, depression, bipolar, ADHD and others. 

Please take a moment for prayer and a pause this morning for his family and all families, who have young adults who are struggling. If you see a post on Facebook or hear a conversation from someone who has the below warnings, reach out. 

In disclosure, I have a nephew as well, who had a bright future in government; and now his mind is essentially gone. He is just existing in the world with no knowledge of who he is. There are warning signs, that we take for granted. I have listed them below. Please take a moment to review them, it may save a life!

Richard, we are praying for Chris, you and your family. If there is anything you need, please let Cleveland know! We stand with you during this difficult time.

Suzanne Turner, President

NFBO of Cleveland

Warning Signs of suicide

Suicide does not have one single cause. Certain factors like substance abuse and untreated depression can lead to higher risk of suicide just as having a trusted group of friends can help protect you. Read more about the warning signs of suicide, risk factors and protective factors of suicide. 

Call 911 or the emergency service in your country if you see or hear the following:

Someone threatening to hurt or kill him/herself or talking about wanting to die. Especially if the person has a weapon or item to hurt himself/herself. 

Searching for ways to kill him/herself by seeking access to lethal means-whether that is online or physically in the moment of despair. 

Someone talking, writing, or posting on social media about death and suicide when these actions are out of the ordinary for the person.

Warning Signs

The warning signs of suicide are indicators that a person may be in acute danger and may urgently need help.

   - Talking about wanting to die or to kill oneself;
   - Looking for a way to kill oneself;
   - Talking about feeling hopeless or having no purpose;
   - Talking about feeling trapped or being in unbearable pain;
   - Talking about being a burden to others;

   - Increasing the use of alcohol or drugs;
   - Acting anxious, agitated, or reckless;
   - Sleeping too little or too much;
   - Withdrawing or feeling isolated;
   - Showing rage or talking about seeking revenge; and
   - Displaying extreme mood swings.

This list of Warning Signs for Suicide was developed by an expert review and consensus process that included SAVE’s Executive Director and was informed by a review of relevant research and literature.  Additional information about the warning signs can be found in the following published article: Rudd, M. D., Berman, A. L., Joiner, T. E., Jr., Nock, M. K., Silverman, M. M., Mandrusiak, M., et al. (2006). Warning signs for suicide: Theory, research, and clinical applications. Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior, 36(3), 255-262.

If you or someone you know is in crisis, call the Lifeline (USA) at 1-800-273-8255 OR Text SIGNS to 741741 for 24/7, anonymous, free crisis counseling.
