The given statement is true.

It has been suggested that talking responsibly and openly regarding suicide lets a possibly suicidal individual know that they do not have to be alone, that there are others who desire to listen and who want to help. The majority of people are reassured to eventually be able to talk honestly regarding their feelings, and this alone can minimize the threat of an attempt.
