World Su***de Prevention Day – Thursday 10 September

Today is World Su***de Prevention Day, an opportunity to raise awareness, reduce stigma and remind ourselves that small actions and conversations can make a real difference.

Samaritans’ message this year is that suicidal thoughts can be interrupted. If you are concerned that someone may be struggling, you don’t need to be an expert. Taking the time to notice a change, check in, listen without judgement and show someone that you care can be an important first step.

💚 How can we help?
Check in with someone if you notice they don't seem themselves.
Give them time and space to talk.
Listen without judgement and avoid immediately trying to solve the problem.
Don't be afraid to ask directly about suicidal thoughts – asking the question does not put the idea into someone's head.
Encourage them to access appropriate professional support.
Remember to look after yourself too.

💚 Look out for each other, listen, and don't be afraid to ask.

To anyone affected by su***de, whether you’re missing someone you’ve lost, struggling with suicidal thoughts yourself or supporting someone who is going through it right now – we’re thinking of you this World Su***de Prevention Day.

Just a reminder that if you find World Su***de Prevention Day hard, for any reason, it really is OK to switch off from social media tomorrow. Take care of yourselves 💚
