Comment: that was a very crazy plot twist during the speech when he said that he was the man that he was talking about. Im glad that he didnt die so that he can tell others about his story.

Comment: In the United States, there are more suicides than murders. Jay encourages the sharing of suicide stories, and support for survivors. I never really thought about how the hush-hush aura of suicide attempts and survivors tales can have an impact on society's outlook, as well as future people's decision to try and kill themselves.

Question: Suicide isn't covered by some insurance agencies. Partially, because it's illegal in some countries. Should insurance companies cover suicide, and suicide attempts (with proven depression or other mental issue?)

comment: Watching the videos I have watch today made me realize that nothing is impossible. No matter what state of mind you may be in there's always a way to overcome it.

Question: how many are there to help people with suicide problems?

Comments: Watching the video really made me realize how many people are suffering from thoughts of suicide or have lost someone from suicide.

Question: what made him want to turn his life around ?

Comment: JD's story is very inspiring and it's helpful for anybody going through what he went through because his story lets them know that it won't always be like that.

Question: Why did you decide to change your life around and get back on your feet ?

# data[].attributes.body
That must have been a very hard state to be in. to have it going that good on the outside but in the inside would be a very tough decision for me whether to die or live, personally i would live and fix my problems.

Why did he try to kill himself? he could have been a money maker, and use that money for helping his mental state, what made him depressed?

comment: I strongly agree when jd said if you know anyone whom is trying to committee suicide or if you are that person only thing you need to do is sit and talk about what is going on in your life and what is causing you to wanna committee suicide

Question: what made you jump off the bridge ? why and what do you think abouty now when you hear others talk or say anything about suicide?

Comment: 37 times more likely to succeed the 2nd time. I feel like we should prevent the first time, why doesn't society talk about these things? Why are their Stigmas? Because the world hasn't addressed the issue that's why.

Question: How did you bounce back? What did it feel like to realize you have a life to live?

Comments- Wow. What a hook to the story. I initially felt somewhat apathetic towards JD since I at first thought that he wasn't the suicide attempt survivor that he was talking about. When he revealed that it was him who jumped off the fence, I felt a great deal of respect towards him. I'm glad that he realized that he had a problem and got his life back.

Question- When did he first become suicidal?

# data[].attributes.body
Comment: I didn't know such a high percentage of suicide attempts ended in failure and that they would attempt it again because we didn't have a conversation with them and help them overcome their emotional troubles.

Question: What should we talk about with people who attempted suicide?

# data[].attributes.body
Comment: If a person tries to commit suicide and someones knows about this then, i think it is probably good to watch over them very closely.

Question: What was the reason of your attempted suicidal situation?

# data[].attributes.body
He realized that after suicide attempt that all of these people came together to save him and knew that people cared about him?

What was the last event that maybe triggered him to attemp suicide?

# data[].attributes.body
Comment: It takes a lot of courage to say that you were depressed, but to get up in front of a crowed and tell you story takes even more. I really liked how he revealed that he was John until he told the full story, that way people wouldn't automatically judge him for attmepting sucide.

Question: What thoughts were going through your head when you were rescued? What made you want to turn you life around?

# data[].attributes.body
Comment: I now can get why talking about suicide is a healthy thing to let out of you.

Question: If he had a lot of things going his way, why did he attempt suicide?

# data[].attributes.body
Comments: Suicide is a problem that the world needs to focus on a lot. people die every 30 seconds from suicide and suicide isn't always the correct way to go. it breaks my heart that some teenagers,and adults take their lives because of something someone else said a perfect example would be bullying. there needs to be more suicide hotlines around for people in deep depression ready to just end their life and give it all up.

Question: what made you not try and commit suicide again? was it the fact that you didnt succeed the first time?

# data[].attributes.body
Comment:

This short sy made me realize that people can bounce back and feel amazing about themselves and all it takes is a hand. A helping hand that could be anyone. We need more people that want to help others. With more people like that, we could prevent depression.

Question:

Why don't people help others who struggle? Everyone is the same and people aren't perfect. They need help.

Comment: I had never really thought about all of the people who survived their suicide attempts, and the lack of resources they are offered.

Question: What would be the most beneficial way to help suicide survivors?

# data[].attributes.body
Comment: I was surprised when he said that 19/20 people that attempt suicide will fail. I also think that this must have been very hard for him to talk about, since he said this is his first time publicly speaking about his suicide attempt.

Question: What percent of people who attempt suicide but fail, attempt it another time?

# data[].attributes.body
Question: Has he stared a program to reach out to people and prevent suicide? If so how is it and is it working well?

Comment: I was surprised when i heard him say he was JD. This video was touching and I am glad he survived to tell his story. Hopefully this video reaches many.

comment:

His speech was really good especially once he revealed that he was the protagonist of his tale. He seems to be doing a long better.

question

How credible are the statistics that he used and also if he ever thought to try to kill himslef again.

# data[].attributes.body
Comment: I did not know that the statistics for suicide and second-attempt suicide were so bad.

Question: What resorces, if any, are there for people who have failed suicide attempts?

# data[].attributes.body
Comment: I was very inspired by JD's story and very surprised at the end in which he explained that he was Jon. I would never want to go through a situation like JD went through. I have never had any thoughts of suicide, and very proud about that.

Question: Why did JD want to commit suicide after selling a penthouse in NYC? In my opinion, I would be great to have the new job opportunity and to sell the penthouse for some cash. (CASH IS KING!)

Comments: I understood how important Jay D thought about the subject of suicide. Suicide is a big problem and what affected me the most was when he said 19 out of 20 people have a failed attempt of suicide the first time, but about 37% are successful the second time.

Questions: Why is suicide such a problem?! Why isn't there more talk about the prevention of suicide and depression anywhere?
