A Real Testimony from Someone Who Reached out to TheHopeLine for Help.

"I just wanted to say thank you for what you're doing and for your hopecoaches.

I've been struggling with suicide for fifteen years and when I called last night.

The HopeCoach was the first person to ever give me hope that I was valuable.

The battle's not over but for the first time, I have hope that the battle's worth fighting.

And that I'm not alone.

Thank you."
