'None of us is beyond help. We have simply not been offered the type of help that would have made a difference for us' Love this comment by Joy Hibbins from Suicide Crisis Centre #SuicidePrevention #mentalhealth
If someone you care about is showing some of the risk factors for mental distress, try to have a conversation with them to express your concern. It is best if you can do this in person & in privacy.
Call or text 988 to reach the #SuicideCrisis Lifeline. In an emergency-call 911.

+NHS staff have poor economic literacy?
Yes, Nuwan Dissanayaka Caroline F 🦊 what approach is experienced? How quick empathy evaporates under pressure? No guarantee but.. 1/2
Suicide Crisis Centre Last time I was on the phone with 101 crisis team, the mh nurse said: 'So where do you think this comes from?'
Me, crying: 'well, I had a dysfunctional family growing up'
Her: 'Everyone's family is dysfunctional'.

Are you fucking joking?
Suicide Crisis Centre I was suicidal and they told me to get a job. Crisis? What Crisis?!
We absolutely love this quote from Joy Hibbins, Founder and CEO of Suicide Crisis Centre 💙
Smiling at a stranger.
Checking in with loved ones.
Helping someone in need.
Asking someone about their day.
Sharing your own lived experience.
The world needs more of it 🌎 🌍 🌏
Suicide Crisis Centre This also makes it inaccessible to people who struggle with communication or who have a form of cognitive impairment.
I wonder if they offer longer appointments for those people?
Suicide Crisis Centre The culture of many mental health services is such that those who may well be thinking along those lines are likely to simply keep quiet.
Such organisations rarely encourage such professionals to speak out.
Suicide Crisis Centre Some people ( myself included ) have a terrible phobia of Doctors and Hospitals and it takes so much courage to go in the first place. This is outrageous and shows that in 2023 GPs have no training in or understanding of Mental Health and furthermore don't want to know about it.
Suicide Crisis Centre The exact words I was told on the day I nearly lost my life. ‘We want you to take responsibility’.
