1 in 5 of us will struggle with suicidal thoughts in our lifetime. Those figures might come as a surprise to many of you reading this – suicidal thoughts are much more common than you might have realised. If you haven’t personally experienced them, the chances are that you’ll have a friend, family member, neighbour or colleague who has. For that reason, the Occupational Health team at YourGP are calling on employers everywhere to focus on this important issue on 10th September – World Suicide Prevention Day.
The following statistics don’t make for easy reading, but they give a clear indication of the scale of the problem and why we as a society need to do more to tackle the issue:
Many people find talking about their thoughts, feelings and general mental health extremely difficult. But we all need to get better at speaking openly if we are to stand a chance of breaking the stigma of suicidal thoughts and helping those in need.
The Samaritans charity lists four ways you can play your part.
Our team of highly experienced GPs are here to help and support anyone struggling with their mental health. Our Occupational Health team are also here to advise businesses how they can support their employees, protect their health and boost their wellbeing. For further information, simply call 0131 381 0322 or email occhealth@your.gp and we’ll be happy to arrange an appointment at a time that suits you.
Just a massive thank you for being so willing to help us out. I was kept up to date in all email communication between the two clinics which I found very reassuring. I honestly can not emphasize enough how grateful we both are that the clinic was able to help us out with the Zita West fertility tests. We really did not know what we were going to do after the mix up with the blood collection dates due to the 4th of July in America and really thought we would have to give up on these tests so it means a massive amount to us that we have been able to proceed with them because of your willingness to help us out. Thank you again.
