Have you ever asked someone if they are thinking of committing su***de? It's natural to feel nervous and to hold back in asking, but we can help somone by genuinely coming closer, listening and actually asking the question. Today is Day 1 of the July 2026 Mental Health First Aid. Fifteen of us with Leo Barreto, learning how to approach our friend/relative who has been struggling with life, and asking the direct questions with regard to su***de. Taking the time to genuinely care can help someone in seeing hope and reducing the likelihood of ending their life. We never give up on people. Christiana Leimena-Lehn
