We need to break the silence.

Talking to someone has become a barrier for many teenagers. Some feel they have no choice but to keep their pain to themselves, and a few are choosing solutions that don’t help at all hurting themselves. It’s heartbreaking to see this in my own country, especially among young people.
I’m even scared to go on social media now. The first video I see is often of a young person harming or killing themselves.
We need to break the silence. If you’re struggling, you’re not alone.
