Counselling Nuggets
Suicide is a major public health challenge, claiming the lives of more than 720 000 people every year. Each life lost has profound social, emotional, and economic consequences, deeply affecting families, friends, workplaces, and entire communities around the world (WHO, 2024)
September is a suicide prevention month, and the world suicide prevention day is observed on September 10th each year to promote actions to prevent suicide. Suicide prevention is a collection of efforts to reduce the risk of suicide. Effort to prevent it may occur at individual, family, relationship, community and society. The theme for World Suicide Prevention Day (2024–2026) is “Changing the Narrative on Suicide”. This theme calls on us all to; fight/reduce stigma, challenge harmful myths and encourage/foster open and compassionate conversations about suicide.
This is therefore a reminder to us to appreciate openness, empathy, and support. Together we can create environments where people (students) feel able to speak up and seek help. Mental health is a priority at our campus even in lecture rooms. let’s be compassionate/kind to each other. In case someone (students) approach you, kindly Look, Listen and Link those in distress to care.
No one is immune to mental illness.
Together we can make a difference.
