A member of our year took their life at college. None of us knew whatever was going on in their life or mind. And that is the hardest part - societal stigma prevented the person reaching out to peers and friends, and probably stopped us collectively being proactive in stepping in, in case we mistakenly labelled someone as appearing in need of help. It transpired they had tried to reach help online, the place where most youth head these days, but instead of help they received encouragement to kill themaelves. Cracking the very tough nut of getting people actually talking would save more lives and disrupt more attempts. |
