Do you know what causes suicide?
Mental illness
Psychological distress
Severe life stressors
Substance abuse
Shame etc
Do you know what doesn’t?
Talking about suicide.
Normalise the conversation & realise that there are many layers & stages to suicidal thoughts & intent 🙏🏻
A letter I’ve received (sent to chambers):
“You are the proof that Blacks can achieve high status appointments in British (White) society if they graft away, behave better and respect the customs, traditions, characteristics and history of their adopted nation.”
Racism is real.
So infuriating and distressing to see bullies assault a Sikh boy so viciously. Hate has no place in our schools or in our kids’ hearts.
To the leaders at the @charlton_school: Please know that we’re watching and expect you to hold these boys accountable.
Absolutely heartbreaking. Across our country, over 184,000 American lives have been claimed by coronavirus, leaving families and communities torn apart. It’s not like this in the rest of the world. All we needed was a competent president.

@DhanrajOffl That is a very distressing video to watch and I would have taken it to the police straight away to investigate and find the source of this awful crime
