Ask For Help
Grief and loss can be difficult to process. If you are struggling, it is okay to ask for help.
A study from the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law finds that 81% of transgender adults in the U.S. have thought about suicide.
If you are thinking about suicide or self-harm, it is common to feel rage, guilt, hopelessness, shame, or despair. There is no shame in reaching out for assistance, and talking about it can help. Please reach out to your doctor or another healthcare provider for support.
If you want to talk to someone now, do not wait. Reach out to any of the resources below, anytime.
