DISCLAIMER

Suicide is a serious issue and should never be used lightly as a plot device. In this story, the paranormal entity manipulates certain events to appear as suicides, but those instances are never true suicides. 

However, there is one character who will choose to exit the story on their own terms, resulting in a single true depiction.

Apart from this one instance (of which, a trigger warning will be displayed at the top of the page), there are no real depictions of suicide, and there are NO suicidal thoughts present throughout the story.

If you or anyone you know is experiencing suicidal thoughts, please contact your National Suicide Prevention Line:

United States: 1-800-273-8255
United Kingdom: 116 123
Canada: 1-800-456-4566
Ireland: 116 123
Philippines: 2919
Australia: 131 114
France: 01 45 39 40 00

You are not weak for seeking help. Your feelings are valid. You are loved, you are needed, and you are enough. ♥

TRIGGER-WARNINGS 

This story contains mild gore, violence, strong language, drug use, and depictions of psychological disorders.

There is a subtle reference to SA in a side character's backstory. However, it is handled with care, and we do not delve deeply into it, as SA should never be used as a mere plot device. It is not included for shock value or exploitation.
