@suicideresearch@UofGSHW@UofGMVLS Thanks Rory @suicideresearch Was great to finally see the exhibit & great to be a part of encouraging further conversations on the importance of suicide prevention work and research.
A month ago we held our Time Space Compassion gathering in Edinburgh.
We had a brilliant day of engaging discussion with around one hundred people working in suicide prevention in Scotland.
Let's keep those conversations going.

BDD causes debilitating anxiety. So important we know the signs to look for. My son Dylan struggled for a long time before any of us knew about or understood what BDD is. A chance viewing of someone talking about symptoms changed that.

@suicideresearch@Rose_Fitzp Really looking forward to seeing the exhibition. Such a clever way to show the relationship between lived experience, research and policy.
Another day, another half time. During the next 15 minutes, you could save a life.
Regardless whether you like football or not, this wee film from @_FCUnited is well worth a watch.
Talk. Listen. Save Lives.
