    To anyone who’s feeling down around this time of year, call 911 or 988. Nothing is better than having you around.

    Edit:

    I really feel strongly about this and I misworded my message. Get help if you need it.

    You matter to me. I mean that with all of my heart.

      Uhhhhhhhhh, very funny to recommend calling the police in the comments on a post about a man getting killed by the police because he called for help.

      cops murder suicidal man

      if youre suicidal, get thr cops involved!

      I love your energy, friend. Thank you for caring about strangers. In this world, that means a lot. However, I think this advice is very region-specific. In most of America, for instance, this isn’t good advice. This is closer to calling the Army than a crisis counsellor. In other places, where police have the resources to help someone in this position, this may be excellent advice.

      There are probably better places to direct people for resources like this. Don’t stop fighting; fight more effectively. If you can’t find anything better to link people, @ me and I’ll try to help
