The terror of picking up the phone to call a hotline not knowing who will answer prevents you from doing so. Or, even if you have the courage to pick up the phone, the sound of the persons voice scares you & you hang up. We know this ha... ppens because over 30% of all people who call suicide hotlines do just thatthey hang up as soon as they hear the human voice.
