Important too I think. A lot of people (hell, I'd argue most people though I have no data for that beyond me and my own circle of people who have ups and downs like everyone else) could get a lot out of it I think.

I was at the hospital today because a young man that I mentor tried to kill himself in school today.
I will come back to this post later, but right now, I'm just glad the young man is alive.
I dealt with the same issue with my child, who didn't actually attempt anything, but talked about it enough that we had to intervene and get him some tools to help him deal with his feelings.
I could list more, but I am tired and hurting from today's crisis.
