It’s not always easy to see the signs—but noticing could save a life. Suicide doesn't always look like what you expect. Adults who are struggling may seem fine on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, or isolated inside. That’s why it's so important to check in—with friends, coworkers, loved ones, and even yourself. What to watch for: ⚠Withdrawing from social connections ⚠Expressing feelings of hopelessness or being a burden ⚠Changes in mood, sleep, or substance use ⚠Talking about death or “wanting to disappear” What you can do: Start a conversation. Listen without judgment. Offer support and encourage professional help. You don’t have to have all the answers—you just have to show up. 💙Need help? Call, text, or chat 988 anytime.
