#BeThe1To is the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline’s message for National Suicide Prevention Month and beyond, which helps spread the word about actions we can all take to prevent suicide. The Lifeline network and its partners are working to change the conversation from suicide to suicide prevention, to actions that can promote healing, help and give hope. #bethe1to #suicideprevention #SuicideAwareness #patrickpleefoundation

Studies indicate that helping someone at risk create a network of resources and individuals for support and safety can help them take positive action and reduce feelings of hopelessness. #bethe1tohelpthem #NationalSuicidePreventionMonth #SuicideAwareness #suicideprevention #PatrickPLeeFoundation

Individuals are more likely to feel less depressed, less suicidal, less overwhelmed, and more hopeful by after speaking to someone who listens without judgment. #BeThe1ToAsk #SuicideAwareness #suicideprevention #nationalsuicidepreventionmonth #patrickpleefoundation

Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. Research shows people who are having thoughts of suicide feel relief when someone asks after them in a caring way. Findings suggest acknowledging and talking about suicide may reduce rather than increase suicidal ideation. #WSPD2020 #SuicideAwareness #suicideprevention #BeThe1ToAsk #patrickpleefoundation

This week is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Week. As we work to protect our mental health and cope with uncertainty, let's also be there for each other.... Remember, you don't have to be a mental health professional to make a difference. From learning the warning signs for suicide and what to do if you're worried someone is struggling, to advocating for smart suicide prevention legislation, there are simple things you can do to safeguard mental health. You're not in this alone, have a real conversation about your mental health, and encourage others to have one too. We can all help each other #KeepGoing.

September is Suicide Prevention Month. Reach out to friends who may be struggling and reach out to friends to talk about how you are feeling. #mentalhealthmatters #suicideprevention #justtellone #mentalhealthawareness #suicideawarness #patrickpleefoundation
