Suicidal thoughts are complex. We do know, though, that certain actions can make a difference. And, we know if we put a wide range of these actions in place we have a better chance of preventing suicides. #WSPD

A comprehensive & coordinated response to #SuicidePrevention is critical to ensure that the tragedy of suicide does not continue to cost lives & affect millions of people through the loss of loved ones or suicide attempts. #WSPD2021

This #WorldSuicidePreventionDay evening, #lightacandle in acknowledgement & support for #suicideprevention & to enable those bereaved to remember a lost loved one & for the survivors of suicide. #bethelight

Today is #WorldSuicidePreventionDay.
Go to https://t.co/tx0atbGzDR to connect with a free helpline, anywhere in the world.

Through action, you can make a difference to someone in their darkest moments - as a member of society, as a child, as a parent, as a friend, as a colleague or as a neighbour. #bethelight

The insights and stories of people with a lived experience of suicide can be extremely powerful in helping others understand suicide better and encourage people to reach in to support someone, and for individuals to reach out for help themselves. #WSPD

All of us can play a role, no matter how small. We may never know what we do that makes a difference. Take action and reach in. You can #bethelight

We want to break down the major barriers by creating a more accepting society where people are encouraged to come forward to receive help and feel comfortable in accessing the care they need and want. #WSPD

By creating hope through action, we can signal to people experiencing suicidal thoughts that there is hope, that we care and want to support them. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay

Join us in being a beacon of light and spreading a message of hope. Together, we can create a world where few people die by suicide. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay https://t.co/JVTOjKGPBc

By stepping closer and reaching in we can encourage those with suicidal thoughts to reach out. Take action this World Suicide Prevention Day. You can #bethelight.

Criminalising suicide is counterproductive. It does not deter people from taking their lives, but does deter them from seeking help in a moment of crisis. Suicide must be decriminalised. Learn more in @UnitedGMH’s latest report ➡️ https://t.co/1xyaJv8J5U #WSPD

#CreatingHopeThroughAction is optimistic and aims to impart a sense of purpose. We’ll be discussing the insight process behind the theme and how we have sought to portray this through imagery. Join us tomorrow to hear more.

Join IASP President @suicideresearch in advance of #WSPD on Twitter Spaces tomorrow 9th Sept at 10.30am BST as we discuss our WSPD theme, it's meaning and importance with the hugely talented team who helped bring it to life. @_briancooper @stephaniesaloli https://t.co/s5kzbrLMdU
