This RU OK Day /: Please commit to having powerful conversations with those around you. You don’t need to be a trained professional to check in with someone you’re worried about. Trust your instincts and ask the question; “RU OK”? Experts generally agree that asking someone whether they’re thinking about suicide is unlikely to make the situation worse or ‘put ideas in their head’. Listen without judgement. Just listen. Remember, you don’t have to have the solution to their problems. Help them get help. You can assist by connecting them with other supports and services such as a GP or psychologist. And, please know, we are here for you if you need support. Reach out to us 24/7 on 13 11 14. No one should face their darkest hours alone.
