Project Semicolon hopes to serve as an inspiration. If this is an emergency, or if you are worried that you or someone you know may be at risk for suicide, please call your local authorities (911), contact a mental health professional, or call and talk to someone at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).

A semicolon doesn’t have to look one way.
Sometimes it looks like the thing that helped you keep going.

Some days are not won loudly.
Some days, survival looks like getting through the next hour.
The next breath.
The next impossible moment.
The semicolon reminds us that there were days we didn’t think we would make it through, and somehow, we did.
If this speaks to you today, stay.
Not forever all at once.
Just for now.
Your story is still here.
And that matters.

When someone you love says they do not want to be here anymore, the pressure to say the perfect thing can feel overwhelming.
But support does not start with perfect words.
It starts with staying present.
It starts with believing them.
It starts with asking directly.
It starts with helping them get through the next few minutes safely.
You are not expected to become their therapist.
You are not expected to carry this alone.
But your response can help someone feel less alone in one of the hardest moments of their life.
If someone is in immediate danger, stay with them and call or text 988 for support in the U.S.
You do not have to know exactly what to say.
Just don’t disappear.
Save this. Share it. Someone may need it before they know how to ask.
