Suicide Presentation

The presentation was a very informative and actually interesting one.  It was interesting to hear the actual statistics of suicides per year.  The one statistic about how many people have thought about suicide is astonishing to me.  I don't know if I can fully believe that statistic.  Having taken statistics makes me realize how people can bias a statistic in their favor, so I'm not sure how much I believe this statistic.  It is still very high though even if it is incorrect.  The speaker was very nice and was eager to get the class involved, which I liked.  It really made me think about who actually is contimplating suicide. What if I don't know one of my friends who is contimplating it now?  It is a scary thought but it could be true.  I think people should never have to think about commiting suicide; it's sad that it is the last resort.  This has made me want to become more aware of what people are thinking and to always be there for my friends
