Most people who are struggling don't always say it outright. They may say things like “I'm just tired” or “It doesn't matter anyway.”
This Su***de Prevention Month, we want to make three things easier to remember:
ASK DIRECTLY.
Open the door to honest conversations.
LISTEN WITHOUT FIXING.
You don't need the perfect words. You need to stay present.
CONNECT THEM TO HELP.
That could mean a crisis line, a mental health professional, a trusted support person, or staying with them while they connect with the help they need.
If you or someone you love is in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline, available 24/7. In case of an emergency, call 911, and for non-emergencies, call 988.
At Clarity Through Community, we believe help should be easier to find and access. We connect individuals and families with mental health and substance use resources and care pathways, helping close the gap between recognizing a need and finding the right support.
If you're worried about someone, start the conversation. You don't have to have all the answers.
