CLMS SSS: Understanding Suicide for World Suicide Day
South Africa has the second highest
suicide rate in the world and suicide has affected students within our
university community. Perhaps you know
of someone who died by suicide or is struggling at the moment. Perhaps you may be struggling.
There is a lot of stigma around mental
health issues, including suicide and it can be hard to know what to do or how
to reach out for help.
We would like to encourage you to
attend this online webinar to learn more about suicide to better support one
another in raising awareness, empowering yourself and preventing suicide.
Please join us in this
psycho-educational webinar, where we will cover the following:
•
What is suicide?
•
Statistics in South Africa
•
Causes and Factors
•
Myths and Facts
•
Treatment
•
Ways of coping when I feel suicidal - now and in the future
•
