Hi,
My name is Bailey and I live in the Atlanta, GA. area. I am 12 yrs. old and I represent all my young peers dealing with depression. I personally know the pain of depression and I was fortunate enough that my family LISTENED to me just in time. We must all learn how to LISTEN with our HEART, EYES, AND EARS!

Hello,
My name is Laura Hospes. I am 25 yrs. old and I live in Amsterdam (The Netherlands). I requested to be a spokes person and Ambassador for "I Pledge 2 Listen" to show that depression is a problem worldwide, and affects people of ALL ages. I hope my story helps someone at risk, and helps prove that suicide should not be an option to solve problems. PLEASE LISTEN!

Although suicide has become a major epidemic for people of all ages, sadly enough, nationwide, our young people are rapidly joining the ranks of 'endangered species.' The primary reasons are due to drugs, bullying, sexual predators, mental and physical abuse and social media bullying. Their confidence in safe havens within the family and community has been replaced by hopelessness, drifting, dejection and rejection, to the extent that each year thousands select suicide as a permanent solution to a temporary problem!
