R U OK‪?‬

TEEN DEPRESSION & SUICIDE

"I didn't know what depression looked like, I just thought something was terribly wrong with me."

Sometimes, the thoughts we leave unsaid are the most dangerous.

Such is certainly the case for those feelings - however fleeting - that leave you sad, anxious, afraid and hopeless. If you're a young adult who suffers from depression or other mental illnesses, your own mind might seem like a prison of negativity, your own thoughts too great a burden to bear.

Whether you, a friend or a loved one suffers from depression or is at risk of suicide, you can find hope in three life-changing words: R U OK?

R U OK? offers teens, young adults, parents and educators a toolkit for dealing with mental illnesses, depression, addiction and suicide. Addressing relevant issues like cyberbullying, technology addiction, substance abuse, gender confusion and suicide, R U OK? helps bring light to otherwise dark - but critical - topics.
