For #WorldSuicidePreventionDay
may I suggest we all avoid just sharing the usual "if you're struggling, reach out" messages, for something more practical and helpful:
1) @theCALMzone and others are taking more calls than ever at the moment, donating £8 helps them answer a call

1) @theCALMzone and others are taking more calls than ever at the moment, donating £8 helps them answer a call
2) Look out for the friends that have gone quiet and just say hi - if people are struggling, it's often hard for them to reach out - a simple message saying hello could make all the difference. Send 3 messages today to people you haven't spoken to for a while
3) Encourage your company to send you on a course to become a qualified Mental Health First Aider: https://dorsetmind.uk/training/workplace-training/mental-health-first-aid/
4) If you, like me and many others are finding things tough - remember that you can't always change the levels of anxiety you feel, but you can change what you focus on. Switch off from the news and social media for a bit, read a book, go for a walk or bake something.
You do you
You do you
5) Listen to things that make you think, feel happy or focus on different aspects of life - big shout out to https://www.wemakesuccesshappen.com/ podcast for some phenomenal guests
6) Have a block, mute and follow session - how about you swap rage following DJT for @dog_rates? - Follow some Instagram accounts that just post scenery or art, not lifestyle, fitness or fashion.
