💛 September is Suicide Prevention Month.
Sometimes the signs aren’t loud.
They can look like pulling away. A change in behavior. Someone who suddenly seems overwhelmed, hopeless, angry, anxious, or simply… different.
And sometimes, the person who is struggling is the one everyone around them thinks “has it all together.”
That’s why awareness matters.
This month, we encourage you to slow down enough to notice the people around you. Check in. Ask the question. Listen without judgment. And don’t assume someone is okay simply because they say they are….or because everything looks okay from the outside.
You don’t have to have the perfect words.
Sometimes simply saying, “I’m here. How are you really doing?” can open a door someone desperately needed opened.
Swipe through these graphics to learn some of the warning signs to watch for. Knowing the signs may help you recognize when someone needs support…and reaching out can make a difference.
If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7 by call, text, or chat.
💛 Notice. Ask. Listen. Connect.
