If you’ve ever felt like suicide is an option—keep in mind that, regardless of your situation, everything changes over time. Even if you feel like your future is hopeless, no one can predict the future, and things can improve. #suicideprevention https://t.co/vcefRo06cf

PASSED: The National Suicide Prevention Hotline Act

By creating a hotline dialing code that is short and easy to remember – similar to 911 – we are taking an important step towards potentially averting tragedy. I thank my colleagues for passing this important legislation.

Relapse is part of recovery from the brain disease of addiction. Now more than ever we must embrace @ddlovato and empower her as she continues to fight. #PrayersforDemi

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

Mental health and addiction are chronic conditions that don't discriminate, and recovery is not a linear path. I’m praying for you, @ddlovato you have been an advocate for the mental health and substance abuse communities, and we stand by you now #PrayForDemi
