You don’t have to be an expert to start a conversation with someone who might be struggling to cope. A simple "Hey, are you alright?" can be all it takes to interrupt someone's suicidal thoughts. Anyone can do it. #SmallTalkSavesLives

👀 Tomorrow, the third Monday in January, is sometimes referred to as 'Blue Monday' but it's a myth! ❌ There’s no such thing as ‘Blue Monday’ – we all have our good days and our bad days, and those aren’t for the calendar to decide.

Enormous THANKYOU to the many @samaritans volunteers across & UK & Ireland who are giving their time over these Christmas days to ensure that there is always someone to listen should you need it. You are wonderful people, I am proud to be part of our Samaritans family 🙏💚
It might feel extra hard to reach out for help today because it’s Christmas. But please know you don’t have to face anything alone. If you’re having a hard time, we’ll face it with you. We’re here all day and night 💚

It’s Trans Day of Remembrance today, which can be a difficult and upsetting time. We know social media in particular can be a tough place to be for trans and non-binary people & their loved ones, especially on days like today. We’re here to listen and stand alongside you (1/3)
