Let's talk about Suicide
What to do if you are having suicidal thoughts:
Suicidal feelings and thoughts are real and not a sign of weakness. Many people feel the same way during tough times in life so don’t be afraid to talk about how you feel.
- Tell someone. Tell a friend or family member or call a Counselling Helpline (see suggested places to get help below)
- Talk to a professional. GPs, psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers and other health professionals are trained to deal with issues relating to suicide, mental illness and wellbeing.
- Make sure you are not alone. If you are feeling suicidal or want to end your life, it’s important that you keep yourself safe.
- Avoid using alcohol or drugs. They can make you feel worse. They can also impair you decision-making skills and you might do something you normally wouldn’t do.
- Try to spend time with family and friends, even though you probably want to be alone. Withdrawing and isolating is not a good idea.
