Are the people in your world really OK?

Some of the signs that someone is not okay is perhaps they’re agitated or they’re different in the way they’re acting or appearing, they’re doing things they don’t normally do or which are out of character, they might be depressed or just something different you are noticing about them.

If somebody tells you that they’re not okay it is a good idea just to stop and listen, don’t judge them, try to resist trying to fix them, just be present and allow them to talk, sometimes all people want to do is just talk.

So there are lots of services out there that people can reach out to, some are even free so it is worth contacting those services if you are concerned about someone or suggesting they contact them themselves or they might want to reach out to their GP.

It is important to talk and ask this question everyday to people because we don’t know who is struggling in their lives, it could be somebody going through something massive that appears okay we could just reach out and say are you okay sis are you okay brother and how are you going, people struggle with different things at different times so it is important we always check in with others.
