Does anyone else feel like suicide awareness day isn't helping them? (Possible trigger warning)

DISCLAMER: I am not planning to commit suicide. I can be classified as suicidal, however.
I know that suicide awareness is to try and get people who don't really care about the topic to start looking into it. At the same time, though, when I'm walking around my college, I see things such as "every 15 minutes someone commits suicide" and such, and it really makes it hard to not go into a bad episode when you see how common it is and start wondering if the fight is worth it. I know is more directed to the people that don't know and that we try to fight to be the uncommon number that gets through it, but still, this is just my curiosity wanting to know if anyone else feels the same way and needs support.
