A simple conversation could help save someone’s life.
If you spot someone who doesn’t look OK. Small, soft questions can be a gentle way in - they interrupt the cycle of thoughts and help someone shift a little inside and engage with the world outside of their thoughts
ALT Not sure how to approach someone who might be struggling? Try starting with.. Do you know the nearest place to get a coffee? Hey do you need any help? Do you mind if i set here? That's a very cut dog sitting over there isn't it? Excuse me, do you have the time? It's so rainy today, isn't it!
