KEEPING A MATE SAFE

Monitor your mate's behavior: are they acting differently or strangely? Watch for the warning signs.

Alert: stay watchful. We all have bad days, however if your mate shows warning signs, they may be at risk of depression or suicide.

Talk to your mate. Ask the question: ''ARE YOU ALRIGHT?'' The only way to check out if they are ok, is to ask.

Engage with yor mate. Encourage them to seek help, visit a doctor or speak to a counselor. Or call Rural Alive & Well Inc. Offer to get them some assistance. It may be all it takes to keep them safe.
