Talking about suicide does not make it more likely that someone will end their life, it really shows that you care. Rachel, a counsellor from Papyrus,a UK charity for the prevention of young suicide, discusses with me what may lead someone to consider ending their life and how mothers or any concerned others can help prevent it happening. Counsellors such as Rachel are available on the Hopeline 0800 086 4141. This is a safe podcast which doesn't include examples of individuals or methods and has been approved by Papyrus. We do mention suicide frequently though. Other charities mentioned are Cruse Bereavement Support,Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide, and the film After Shaun. LivingWorks is a charity which provides training in suicide intervention.
