World Semi Colon Day ;

April 16 is World Semicolon Day, which recognizes suicide survivors and aims to raise awareness and offer support for all those who are experiencing mental health challenges. The semicolon is a representation of choosing not to die by suicide, since it indicates a separation of two clauses rather than an end of a clause. In this way, the semicolon has come to represent perseverance and hope in the face of challenging mental illness symptoms.
