American Foundation for Suicide Prevention West Texas Chapter This page is not monitored 24 hours a day, and should not be used as a tool for someone in crisis. AFSP does NOT offer crisis intervention.

The AFSP West Texas Chapter welcomes you to join us in our mission to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide through education, research, advocacy, and loss and healing programs. If you are in crisis, please call 800-273-TALK (8255). If you are worried that someone in your life is suicidal, call the same number and they will help you. This page is a forum to communicate news and information and to create a community among individuals concerned about suicide prevention, coping with suicide loss and living with a mental illness. We each bring our own experience and we invite you to share yours. While we encourage dialogue, it is important that this page remain free of judgment, criticism, and unsolicited advice, a safe place for all members of our community. Comments or posts on this page that do not follow these guidelines may be removed.

As a clinical psychologist whose research focuses on issues surrounding su***de, Yossi Levi-Belz has come to learn that suffering does not end with the su***de event.

Recent studies show that over 60 people are profoundly affected by each su***de death. This means that every year, about 50 million people become part of a group known as su***de loss survivors.
