Ask Questions and Be Direct

It’s okay to ask the following questions and be direct when talking about suicide. Contact one of the crisis services numbers if someone you know is suicidal and remember you don’t have to deal with this alone.

'Are you thinking about suicide or taking your own life?'

'Do you have a plan to hurt yourself or take your own life?'

'Have you thought about when you would do it (today, tomorrow, next week)?'

'Have you thought about what method you would use?'
