Make sure to check in with your friends regularly and support them if needed, too.

There are resources available that can help guide you on how to reach out and any signs you should look out for. These include: 

• What to do if you're worried about somebody
• Resources from the mental health charity Mind, to help someone else
• How to help if someone you know requires urgent help and support.

Be mindful of those around you and check in on them whilst regularly checking in on yourself, too. It's important that you safeguard your own mental health and wellbeing when supporting others.
