There should be more known lines. I know of none. I am assuming the phone book might help. In the case of suicide however, I am sure that is the furthest thing from their mind. I think a lot of suicides are for attention. People don't realize that killing themselves is not the right path to go. It isn't the easy way out. There needs to be more info regarding this matter. Especially to the most targeted age group, teens. They need to know that this doesn't solve anything and how people view this end. If a number was known though, I think the rate would drop in suicides. If they had someone to talk to and make them feel more significant, there would be less suicides.

Most of the people who are serious about committing suicide aren't going to call a suicide hotline, they're just going to do it. The people who call are the ones who aren't really serious about it in the first place.

 People don't want to commit suicide!
No-one does!
It just seems to be the only concievable option. By calling a suicide hotline (check out BeyondBlue, KidsHelpLine, ReachOut), they can talk through whatever they're thinking and hear other options.
"Aren't really serious'"??
You make it sounds like an achievement.
