23.01.2022 WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY Today is World Mental Health Day, and is a day for us to unite in our efforts to improve the mental health of people around the world. This year the focus is on suicide prevention, and is aiming to improve awareness of the significance of suicide as a global public health problem, improve knowledge of what can be done to prevent suicide, reduce the stigma associated with suicide and let people who are struggling know that they are not alone. Every 40 s...econds someone loses their life to suicide. That equates to almost 800,000 lives lost every year. Furthermore, for each suicide, there are more than 20 suicide attempts. Suicides and suicide attempts have a ripple effect that impacts on families, friends, colleagues, communities and societies. If you are struggling, take 40 seconds to start a conversation with someone you trust about how you are feeling. If you suspect someone you know is struggling, start a conversation with them about how theyre feeling. If you know someone who has lost a loved one to suicide, check in with them and ask them how they are doing. Always remember, its ok to not be ok. If you need someone to talk to, please make an appointment to discuss things with your GP, help is available.
