ALT This is an infographic with information about how to store potentially harmful objects in your household. Safe storage of potentially harmful items is everyone’s responsibility. It is hard to predict when someone might experience an emotional crisis, so keeping your home safe at all times is a smart decision. Suicidal thoughts can come on quickly in response to highly stressful situations, and in these moments, the brain does not think as clearly. By making sure that potentially harmful items are secured, you can get ahead and protect yourselves and your friends before a crisis can even start. Don’t do this alone. Team up with your caregiver and talk about safe storage. Firearms should be stored unloaded and with the ammo separately stored. Only currently used medications should be kept in the house. Finally, talk with your household about other everyday objects that could cause harm. 24/7 help for suicidal thoughts is available by calling 988, texting "HOPE" to 741-741, or 911.
