World #SuicidePrevention Day.
Suicide is a global problem - an estimated 700,000 take their own lives each year.
Fuelled by poverty, abuse, mental ill-health, isolation.
Prevention is possible, urgent & a shared task.

Suicide is about overwhelming pain.
For some it’s not a conscious choice to let go - it’s just that they can’t hold on anymore
Making time for someone, sharing hope and showing you care can make all the difference ❤️
