Breaking the silence surrounding suicide

Frances McClelland Institute is glad to partner with Campus Health to help understand and prevent suicide.

The Arizona Daily Wildcat addresses suicide in today's issue: 

There are days when Liz Campbell hides in the back room of the building where she works in Scottsdale, Ariz., when she can’t handle being out on the floor. On those days, the thoughts of her daughter’s suicide overwhelm her and force her to take a few minutes to collect herself.

“I’m not sure that you ever really heal from it. You just simply learn not to let it dominate your life,” Liz Campbell said. “It will never go away.”

When her daughter Caitlin Campbell chose to attend the UA in 2010, she went without her close-knit group of friends, who were heading off to Arizona State University. She made a new group of friends in Tucson and was involved in a theater group. However, about two years after she arrived, a friend at the university killed herself.

Less than a year later, Caitlin Campbell walked into the desert and took her own life.
