I hope this number becomes as ingrained in our minds as 911. Hopefully all states will have this up and running soon, please use it if any of you feel like suicide is the answer.

The 988 suicide prevention hotline just launched. But are states prepared?

The new three-digit “988” National Suicide Prevention Lifeline number officially launched on Saturday, July 16. Anyone witnessing or experiencing a mental health crisis can call, text or chat the easy-to-remember number, similar to dialing 911 in an emergency.

I wore the Til Valhalla 988 t-shirt to work one day and some saw it as a cry for help. HR was involved and it really spiraled out of control. I haven't worn the shirt since. It is a number that has to be made more visible to those who need it but will not ask for fear of shame.


People are so centered around themselves, they fail to see what is going on around them. It's hard to try to help when you work for a woke company that would rather make people happy versus produce a tangible good.
