Seemed a post worthy of sharing.
We know that the stigma surrounding su***de can shame people into silence.
If someone tells us about their suicidal thoughts, it is important to be empathetic and supportive. Dismissing their thoughts and describing them as 'something silly' can make them feel more isolated, unheard, and ashamed. Our words matter and it's important to respond with kindness and compassion.❤️
