💛 Know the Signs. Start the Conversation

Sometimes, a simple, 💬 Kumusta ka?”** can make a difference.

Let’s learn to NOTICE, ASK, LISTEN , and CONNECT —and remind each other that we don’t have to face difficult times alone.

IT'S OKAY TO ASK FOR HELP.
The MarSU Guidance and Counseling Office is ready to listen, guide, and support you.

Your well-being matters. You matter at MarSU. 💛

💫 Changing the Narrative on Su***de: Start the Conversation💬💬

Life is more than the difficult moments we are going through.
There are still stories to write, dreams to pursue, people to meet, moments to experience, and possibilities waiting ahead.

This Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, let us change the narrative. Instead of silence, let us create conversations. Instead of judgment, let us offer understanding. Instead of assuming someone is okay, let us ask.

💛 “How are you?”
💛 “I’m here for you.”
💛 “You can talk to me.”
💛 “Let’s get through this together.”

Every conversation can open a door. Every act of kindness can bring hope. Every person can make a difference.

💬 Start the conversation. Listen without judgment👂 . Remind someone that their life matters.

🌻 Your life matters. Your story is still being written.

Changing the Narrative on Su***de: Start the Conversation.
