Reidenberg, PsyD, Executive Director, Suicide Awareness Voices of Education (www.save.org)“I continued to romanticize my death by suicide: who would find me; what I’d look like. I spent hundreds of hours planning my funeral, imagining the remorse of my family and friends. I wrote good-bye letters, composed wills, and disrupted the lives of everyone close to me. Then reality hit.”—Susan Rose BlaunerThe statistics on suicide are staggering.
