Ask for Help
Don't be afraid to tell someone what you are feeling. If someone asks how they can help, let them know what you need.
If you do not have access to someone with whom you feel comfortable talking, consider using the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline (988) or the Crisis Text Line (741741).
