There is no one sign that someone is considering suicide. Most people will show a combination of signs, while others will show few or no signs.
Never be afraid to open up a conversation about suicide if you have any reason for concern. It’s always better to ask someone if you think they are struggling.
It can be very difficult for someone who is struggling to reach out for help. The person you are worried about may be relieved that you opened up the conversation.
