Every 40 seconds someone loses their life to #suicide.
#WorldMentalHealthDay, on 10 October, is a day for us to unite in our efforts to improve the #mentalhealth of people around the 🌎🌍🌏. The theme selected for this year’s Day is suicide prevention. We will begin our efforts to raise awareness of the scale of suicide around the world and the role that each of us can play to help prevent it on 10 September, #WorldSuicidePreventionDay and continue throughout the month.
Everyone can take part in whichever way makes most sense. Your activity may be private, initiating a conversation with someone you are worried about or sharing a message of hope with someone who is struggling; or it may be public, posting a video message for local or national authorities about action you would like them to take on this issue. Stay tuned and support the #40seconds campaign. For more information, check link in bio.
