We all go through difficult times in our life from time to time; nevertheless, some people experience these lows more intensely than others.
A post that was shared on a Facebook page recently went viral of a woman who attempted suicide by jumping off the Penang Bridge.

The woman, who is in her 40s, appears to have parked her car near the roadside, while a rescue team was sent to the location to talk her out of it. However, it was unclear who had contacted the authorities.
The rescue team attempted to calm the victim down as soon as they arrived. Unfortunately, the woman's mental stability could not be restored, and the operation was a disaster.
The victim's husband arrived shortly after and attempted to persuade her not to do it. Fortunately, the woman was saved by her own husband, who was seen in the car closely embracing his wife.
The post has since garnered over 1,700 views and 308 shares.
Netizens took to the comment section to praise the husband for his act of kindness and expressed their support for the woman; you never know how kind and supportive words could help someone who is in distress.
"May this lady be given the strength and courage she needs to face her difficult life.
“Every human being is faced with a variety of challenges from God. Thank God she was saved so she may continue to live and fight,” one comment reads.
Help and support is always available if you need it! You don't have to struggle with difficult feelings alone. It can, and will, get better.

When life gets tough, we can sometimes lose our spark, and all we need is a little help from others to rekindle our light.
So, let’s be kind to each other, always!
