| Title | A Cry for Help: How to help a friend who is depressed or suicidal |
| Author | Sue Eastgard, MSW |
| Notes | Most suicidal young people don't really want to die; they just want their pain to end. Teen suicide is often preventable if people know the signs to look for and the steps to take when they suspect a friend is suicidal. A Cry for Help teaches young people to recognize the warning signs and to take specific actions to help a friend.
Topics include:
- understanding depression and its connection with suicide
- recognizing verbal, behavioral, and situational signs that show a friend is suicidal
- intervention skills for helping a suicidal young person
- do's and don'ts when reaching out to a suicidal friend
Includes booklet with resources for suicide prevention. |
