Although you can't always tell if someone is suicidal, there maybe some signs you can learn to recognize especially if you notice more than one.
Warning Signs
If you or someone you know display one or more of these warning signs, take the time to talk and evaluate. It's worth it. If it's an emergency, call the National Suicide Hotline 1-800-273-8255
When a suicide occurs, it affects more than just the family. While the family is feeling it the most, a suicide can actually trickle out to the entire community.
Friends and loved ones are hit hard. Co-workers, caregivers and teachers can be in the next level of those affected. Some people may not have had the same amount of interaction, but these people may feel a sadness or loss that is stronger than we might expect. The truth is, when someone is lost through suicide, it creates a wave that has a far and powerful reach among the community.
You may not always be able to know who is suicidal, but you can be kind and know that everyone is fighting battles you can't see.
If you or someone you know might need a support group, please find the link below that best suits your needs.

Winter is in full force and if you live in a cold state, you may have already seen a few blizzards this year. Don't let the weather get the best of you - here are some winter safety tips.
Prevent Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
If it seems like a good idea to start your car in the garage to warm it up, don't! It's best to open the garage and take the car out to let it warm up.
Mittens Vs. Gloves
The dexterity of gloves are handy, but mittens generate more heat from your fingers touching each other.
Traction
Keep kitty litter and rock salt in the trunk of your car to give your wheels traction in a pinch!
Canned Food
Keep some non perishables in your pantry in case the electricity goes out or a winter storm hits!
Shuffle
If you're worried about running into a patch of black ice on a cold day, shuffle your feet instead of taking long strides. Falling can sprain wrists and bruise your bum and ego.
If you know of someone in need of our services, please take a look at our locations to find the nearest Bio-One office near you. Stay safe!
Today, January 9th, law enforcement associations across America are celebrating National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day.
Women and men who make the decision to put on a uniform and serve and protect our communities deserve our gratitude and respect for their service. All of us show our appreciation and support of law enforcement throughout the year, and we hope you take extra time today to thank a police officer, send a note of support, etc.
Thank you to all the prior Bio-One officers and all the law enforcement out there keeping our neighborhoods safe. We appreciate you!
