MTYH: Talking about suicide will lead to and encourage suicide.
FACT: While we might feel uncomfortable talking about suicide with someone, it will not encourage or lead them to attempt suicide | If you or someone you know needs help, call Lifeline 13 11 14

When asking R U OK?, don't assume you know what someone needs. Instead, ask them what they need and listen to what they say.
Ask things like, "Do you want to talk through what you need? I might be able to help you prioritise things."
