September is Suicide Awareness Month and we are taking the opportunity to raise awareness around this important subject. Let's debunk some harmful myths about suicide: Myth: Asking someone if they’re suicidal will make them act on it. Fact: Evidence shows that asking someone about suicidal thoughts can actually help. It opens the door for them to share their feelings. Myth: People who talk about suicide are just seeking attention. Fact: Most people who talk about suicide are calling out for help and should be taken seriously. As a company, we will also be raising money for The Lighthouse Charity – the only charity devoted to the emotional, physical, financial well-being of our construction workforce and their families. Please help us support this much needed cause - https://bit.ly/3Zehb6e. If you need someone to speak to, reach out to a colleague, friend or get in touch with the Samaritans. You can find out how to get in touch by visiting their site - https://bit.ly/4dNiBZV. Suicide is preventable. Talking, supporting, and educating ourselves can save lives. Let's break the stigma and start the conversation. #MentalHealthMatters #SuicidePreventionMonth #Samaritans

How do we change the narrative on suicide? One way is to talk about it. Whispering about it is not the same as talking about it. We have to learn how better to support survivors of suicide and make sure adequate support is available for the people who need it the most. Suicide is the second-leading cause of death among teens and young adults. 75-80% of suicide deaths are men. It’s staggering statistic and we all can do better by checking in on our family members, our children, friends, co-workers and especially the men in your life. At times of crisis or loss, it’s even more important to sit with that person and let them know they are important to you. Today is International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day. Losing my Dad to suicide when I was 13 is a life long loss that is still unfolding. Educate yourself on the signs to be on the look out for and find ways to support each other. See the link in my profile if you’re interested in donating to my Movember campaign to raise funds for suicide prevention programs among men. #mentalhealth #suicideprevention

Today is World Suicide Prevention Day, with the new triennial theme: 'Changing The Narrative on Suicide'. This theme focuses on raising awareness about the importance of reducing stigma and encouraging open conversations to prevent suicides. Changing the narrative on suicide means reshaping how we approach this complex issue and shifting from a culture of silence and stigma to one of openness, understanding, and support. Whether it’s a colleague, a friend or a loved one, let's all take a moment today to reach out and listen. #startheconversation   Here are some ways we can help: - Listen without judgement - sometimes the greatest help we can offer is to simply listen. - Be kind to yourself and others - small acts of kindness are impactful. - Share resources - encourage others to seek professional support when needed.   If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available. Please reach out.   Charities such as Samaritans offer 24/7 helplines, find out more information below: https://lnkd.in/dqaUFSXB  #SuicidePreventionDay #MentalHealth #SRCInfrastructure
