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

The online special for Sucidal Prevention will remain available online thoughout September
