How To Talk About Suicide
Suicide intervention
- The most important thing we can do if we feel someone may be at risk of suicide is to talk.
- Asking someone directly if they are having suicidal thoughts gives them permission to tell you how they’re feeling
- Listen to them – seriously, patiently, and with understanding
- Reassure them that professional help is available, and ensure they know they can continue to talk to you at any time
- Further information on suicide prevention from the Mental Health Foundation is available here
