It’s a myth that talking about su***de will give people the idea or make people do it. By talking about it, you are giving them the opportunity to talk to you, to have a conversation and perhaps get the help and support they need, or at least have options about the help available to them.

It’s not easy, but it could save their life.

Also known as Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), the practice combines acupressure with talk therapy — and some studies suggest it can ease stress, anxiety and PTSD.

And the research shows Tapping helps for sleep issues!

The study demonstrated that Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) significantly reduced insomnia severity, sleepiness, and improved sleep quality in young individuals with sleep problems.

A total of 64 students were included in the study and divided into two groups. There were 32 participants in the intervention group and 32 in the control group. The intervention group received two EFT sessions with a four-week interval, while no interventions were applied to the control group.

• EFT intervention resulted in significant improvements in Insomnia Severity Index, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scores.

• Although fatigue levels did not significantly change, EFT still proved effective in alleviating sleep issues, offering a low-cost and easy-to-use solution for young people with insomnia.
