When a Friend Is Suicidal, It Is Important to Remember

When a friend is suicidal, it is important to remember that:

A) if you believe a friend is in danger of suicide, do not put the idea into his or her head by asking, "Are you thinking of suicide?"
B) in North America, most people who commit suicide are young adults, and so after 40 years of age the danger of suicide lessens.
C) most suicides occur during acute crises and once people get through these crises, the desire to die fades.
D) if a friend is talking about suicide, then he or she will not really do it because most people with serious plans don't signal their intentions.
