As the votes came in for the 2016 elections, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline experienced a spike in calls.
Lifeline director John Draper told CNN that the network took 660 calls between 1 and 2 a.m., double or triple the volume they normally take, with calls increasing as election results poured in.
“I can’t say I’ve seen anything like this… And it’s certainly not something I’ve ever seen in an election,” said Draper, who has 25 years of experience in suicide prevention.
“They call and say it’s the election,” Draper said. “But by the end of the call, it’s about their lives, and that’s when we can help them.”
The Crisis Text Line saw “eight times the normal volume of texts” between 12 a.m. and 1 a.m. Wednesday.
The Trevor Project, a crisis and suicide prevention hotline for LGBTQ youth, said its normal volume calls received “doubled as a result of the election.”
“It’s been ongoing since Tuesday night,” Steve Mendelsohn, deputy executive director explained. “Young people are calling us who’ve never called us before. They’re scared, and they don’t know who to turn to… Given all the rhetoric that they’ve heard leading up to the election, it makes sense that they’re frightened.”
He said that “more than 95% of those reaching out have talked about the election.”

And help make America great again!
Who was the nut case who said that he would leave the USA and move to Canada if Bush were elected? I can’t recall his/her name.
This is the Bush years all over again... liberals on Prozac, liberals on Zoloft, liberals crying to their therapists... I had forgotten how amusing they are.
“Just do it dammit! Stop calling here and whining about Trump!”
That reminds me ... I read that some of these online betting bookies were so confident of a Hillary win and the hopelessness of Trump’s winning that they paid off early. Wonder how that’s working for them.
If you read the article, those 660 calls were just in the first hour as it started to become more apparent that Trump would actually win the election. The call volume increased from there and has been ongoing for days.
In the 2012 election, there was a firm which paid off early for Obama. They got that one right. But I read that in this election, an Irish outfit paid off early, thinking Hillary had it in the bag. LOL!!!!!!!!!
Lena Dunham said she would move to Canada. Cher said she would move to Jupiter. I doubt if either place is particularly happy to hear that.
Caller: Oh, oh, oh, I'm so distraught that my beloved Hillary lost. Boo hoo boo hoo boo hoo.
Call center: Get off the phone, you big dope!.
3 points!
Just imagine that... Hillary, every single day... forever.
Family joke has been for years that neither my mother or I should ever work for a suicide prevention hotline - because she was and I still am very blunt and not overly emotional. IF this is true, makes me wish I was working for one now.
Lena Dunham...THANKS!
Cher wouldn't go there. There wouldn't be anyone there to tell her how beautiful she still is.
Oh dear. Did that sound catty? Sorry.
They need help.
What kind of help that might be, I’d rather not say.
And if there are any actual suicides caused by this fear and hatred, perhaps loved ones of the suicide victims could sue the Dem campaign apparatus and the MSM for wrongful death (no joke).
Great reply and about page....
Alec Baldwin. He lied. He’s still here.

Thank you. I’m always looking for more quotes and images. I add them slowly as I find them.
