🌿 World Su***de Prevention Day 🌿
Today we recognize World Su***de Prevention Day, a time to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and remind those struggling that support is available. Su***de affects people of all ages, backgrounds, and communities, and reaching out can save lives.
Warning Signs to Watch For:
Talking about wanting to die or to harm oneself
Feeling hopeless or trapped
Withdrawing from friends, family, or activities
Extreme mood swings or sudden changes in behavior
Talking about feeling like a burden to others
How You Can Help:
Listen without judgment and offer support
Encourage professional help
Stay connected and check in regularly
Share resources and promote awareness
Immediate Help:
