Chelsea Manning is reportedly out of the harms way following a scare caused by her now-deleted tweets contemplating suicide. (AP) <\/p>\n

Chelsea Manning reportedly posted a pair of tweets Sunday night that hinted suicide contemplation that have since been deleted.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the tweets, Mannings Twitter handle reported that she is safe and was on the phone with friends.<\/p>\n

Thanks everyone for your concern and please give her some space, the tweet read.<\/p>\n

Manning, who is currently living in Bethesda in Maryland, announced her run for U.S. Senate earlier this year. She was sentenced to 35-years in prison in 2013 for violating the Espionage Act and leaking sensitive information to WikiLeaks.<\/p>\n

One of the alarming messages posted by Chelsea Manning on Twitter.(Twitter) <\/p>\n

President Barack Obama commuted her sentence in his last day in office in 2017.<\/p>\n

The candidate for the U.S. Senate posted a picture that appeared to show a person looking down to a street from atop a building.<\/p>\n

\"I'm sorry - I tried - I'm sorry I let you all down,\" Manning wrote in one of the now-deleted tweets, The Daily News reported. \"Im not really cut out for this world - I tried adapting to this world out here but I failed you - I couldn't do this anymore - I can take people I don't know hating me but not my own friends,\" she added. \"I tried and I'm sorry about my failure.\"<\/p>\n

Many on social media quickly jumped on her frightening tweets, asking friends to contact Manning or the authorities to ensure her safety.<\/p>\n

The alarming messages came after a debate on social media with Dawn Ennis, a former ABC News assignment editor who criticized Mannings remark that voting wont change anything.<\/p>\n

Ennis, who came out as transgender in 2013, posted on Twitter, I am looking forward to an update on Chelseas well being in the morning. I truly wish her well. And I expect a new wave of online anger and hate to greet me, too. Be kind to all those who struggle. I myself will work harder to bear that in mind.<\/p>\n
