(CNN)U.S. Army soldier Chelsea Manning, imprisoned for leaking classified documents, has tweeted a message confirming her health and safety following a suicide attempt.

"I am okay. I'm glad to be alive. Thank you all for your love. I will get through this," she wrote on the social media site, adding the hashtag, #standwithchelsea

We can all now, collectively, breathe a sigh of relief! </SARC>

I would be suicidal as well if I were rotting in prison for decades for what Hillary just skated away from.

There was a time - a sane time - that poor Manning would’ve gotten real help and recovered from whatever it is that is plaguing him.

This sick culture is trying to encourage him to go off the cliff by celebrating his behavior.

Practice makes perfect.

To bad you couldn’t be as successful with suicide as you were with being a traitor, there Bradley. Silly fruit.

Why are prisoners using Twitter?

[rockrr]

HEY! Nobody’s paid any attention to me lately!

“And, sigh... I’m still a man.”

During a happier time:

Am I the only one who finds it odd that someone in prison is allowed on social media?

[dfwgator]

No, you’re not okay.

[PROCON]

Twitter is a HUMAN RIGHT!

[rdcbn]

I am so relieved

If Michelle were half the man she says he is, she’d tell that Nobel prize-winning skirt he’s married to to slip Chelsea a CMOH and be done with it.

[PROCON]

Ah yes, quite a handsome man/woman/it.

Thank goodness “she” has access to social media in prison.
