SO…WHERE DO YOU GO FROM HERE?

Now you can breathe, and notice you are breathing. Now you have a voice, and you can listen to your voice. The next part is to find the people you can share with.  There are links and resources listed on this page, for immediate help, on-going help, and long-term connection. If you feel in danger of doing harm to yourself or another, please call 911, or one of the resources listed below.
