Blog: Everyone is responsible for reducing suicidal risk
How our actions and judgements can affect how a person with hidden differences cope in daily life
Support statement
Plus Value Awareness comment
by Keith McKenzie
Suicide can occur to a person with hidden differences. Especially with many life challenges and can make life very difficult to cope and can damage their self-worth.
What everyone need to do
We all need to value a person with differences better and support and provide empathy. At the same time not to use unrealistic expectations, vanity and inaccurate perceptions to misjudge and to mistreat a person with differences.
Instead to be patient to listen, show appreciation, support and value a person with differences. Everyone is responsible to prevent suicide.
Please note
