Talking about su***de can feel awkward – but it’s okay to say the word.

Asking someone if they’re thinking about su***de doesn’t make it worse. It shows you care. And if you’re struggling yourself, you deserve to say it out loud and get support.

This post shares ways to start the conversation, whether you’re checking in on a friend or reaching out for help.
