There are local suicide prevention call centers all over the country, but, trust me, when you're that close, you aren't interested in looking up a phone number. So, here is the number for the national Suicide Prevention Lifeline:
1-800-273-8255
If you need it, call it. If someone close to you needs it, call it. I have, and I found a heart, strong shoulders, and a good pair of ears on the other end of the line.

What kathy b said. I heard an Expert this afternoon talking about how much fun it is to be manic. Oh dear. Not necessarily. And, often, just NOT.

((hugs)) to all who need.
