Helping a friend or family member
Sometimes starting the conversation is the first step.
You don't need to have all the answers to make a difference. Listen, take concerns seriously, and help someone connect with appropriate support.
01
Ask and listen
Try a simple, caring question: “How have things been going for you?” Listen without judgment.
02
Make space for honesty
If you're worried someone may be thinking about suicide, ask directly and calmly. Asking about suicide does not put the idea in someone's head.
03
Connect them to support
Offer to stay with them while they call or text 988, or help them reach a healthcare professional or trusted support person.
04
Respond to immediate danger
If there is an immediate threat or medical emergency, call 911. Stay with the person when safe and follow emergency instructions.
