you are not alone

A life is lost to suicide every 90 minutes in the UK

It does not discriminate and touches the lives of people in every corner of society, from the homeless to the unemployed, from builders to doctors, from reality stars to football players.

The disease that kills people under the age of 35 is more deadly than cancer and car accidents.

And men are three times more likely than women to take their own lives.

Yet it is rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly onslaught unless we stop and take notice now.

For this reason The Sun launches its You Are Not Alone campaign.

Our aim is that we do our bit to help save lives by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health.

Let’s all vow to ask for help when we need it and listen to the voices of others… You are not alone.
