Nationally, 41% of LGBTQ+ young people seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year, a number that goes even higher for those of certain subsets like transgender and youth of color. Compare that to Maine, where the percentage of all students who seriously considered suicide was around 19%. The Trevor Project is a literal lifeline for so many. Their support resources are 24/7/365, nationwide, 100% free and confidential. Youth can be connected to a counselor who is understanding of LGBTQ+ issues and won’t judge you. Youth can reach out to a live person on the phone at 1-866-488-7386, text ‘START’ to 678-678, or begin a live online chat at [ Ссылка ]. If in crisis, call or text 988.
