R U OK?

Sorry for the abbreviation, but Are You OK day is tomorrow – 29th November.  This post might seem out of the ordinary here on my blog, but the awareness of hidden illnesses such as depression is something that affects all of us whether we know it or not.  At it’s worst, depression can lead people to take very drastic action such as suicide. 

So tomorrow – if you suspect a close friend to be suffering from depression ask them – “are you ok” and don’t take a brush off lightly.  People need help and it’s up to us to support each other whenever we need it.
