Project update

This is the message I sent out to everyone who agreed to participate in my questionnaire, along with the questions themselves.

Right, first off, thank you all for participating in this. I understand this subject is a bit touchy for many people, I'm one of them, so really, thank you.

I want you to be 100% honest with your answers, please don't censor them because of my personal experience of losing someone to suicide noting you say will offend me in anyway. I've already thought everything there is to think on the subject.

I also want you to know that this message is being sent to you all individually and I will NEVER share anybody's answers with anyone else.  They will stay between you and me! As soon as I've collected your answers I'm deleting these messages so even I will forget who said what.

There are no questions that will tell me if you're talking about yourself or not, I was very careful with picking my questions, so please don't worry and just be honest.

1: Do you know someone who has entertained suicidal thoughts? (Whether it be you or another)

2: How many people do you know who have had these thoughts? (Please include yourself if it applies)

3: Do you feel you can talk to friends or family about any problems you may have? No matter how serious?

4: Do you feel there is enough outside support for people with suicidal thoughts? (E.G. not friends or family)

5: Do you know of any outside help for people with suicidal thoughts?

6: Do you think there is enough awareness of suicide, the thoughts and the effects?

7: What are your personal views on suicide?
