The good folks over at Original Plumbing have started a campaign around adult suicide in the queer community. They are looking for people to contribute with their own stories forming support through solidarity.
It is our hope that we can come together as a community and talk about our struggles and be there for each other. Suicidal thoughts or the death of a close person can leave people feeling alone and helpless. It is our hope that this project will bring us together, end isolation and unite us in our struggle.– Rocco Kayiatos & Amos Mac
