One suicide impacts 135 people
It is called silent grief.
What can you do to help?
Lean into the person who is stuck in sadness, depression, agonizing pain of loss. Get them help.
Suicide affects all of us.
No two people react to suicide the same way. There are many myths about suicide and there is no script to how someone who survives will grieve or what you can do to help. So, the best thing you can do is ask how you can be of support to them and learn about suicide.
During the month of September, the UNM, UNMH, OPW and HSC Suicide Awareness Planning Committee will offer workshops and events during Suicide Awareness Month. Information about the topics, presenters and events scheduled can be found HERE
