Suicide hotlines are nearly completely useless to most people. I don't know why people still constantly share them.

  Do you have any sources or facts to back up your claim? Genuinely interested if there are statistics around this.

    I also wonder if they get a lot of calls. If suicide is an act of spontaneity, do people stop to think "I should call a hotline"?

      > If suicide is an act of spontaneity, do people stop to think "I should call a hotline"? You only need one that does to save a live.

        True, true. I'm not arguing against them by the way - I think they are a good thing. But I'm just being curious about the 'stats'.
