What are the Warning Signs of Suicide?

What do suicidal persons feel? People thinking about suicide often feel worthless, alone, unloved, and unlovable. They may believe that they are a burden on their family & friends.

They feel misunderstood and judged by their peers and by society. They are often ultra sensitive to criticism, scared to make mistakes and feel unable to cope. They believe that these feelings will last forever and that nobody can help them.
