@elonmusk @realDonaldTrump The American people just hired a guy for President with severe intellectual disabilities - DEI worked for him and now he's pulling the ladder up behind him 🤣

Think today of those we have lost to suicide in the last year. 

Think of their families and friends who were left behind. 

Think of how we can all bring comfort to them and hope to others through Action. 

#WorldSuicidePreventionDay

[Matthew Taylor @MatthewTaylorNI]

I didn’t expect to spend #WorldSuicidePreventionDay in a psychiatric hospital.

When you’re ill, people encourage you to ‘just reach out’, ‘go for a walk’, the more you think- “yes, but you don’t understand.”

Even when it’s full of love, all a ghost can do is haunt. This is how mental illness makes you feel.

If this is you, I understand. I see you. You are believed. Your brain is lying to you; you deserve support.🧵

[Jill Huston @JillHuston6]

Well done ladies! Amazing work for your friend .💪

[The Hummingbird Project NI @NI_Hummingbird]

Wow! So proud of the @belfastravens and their incredible achievement in the 3 Peaks Challenge in July.
