We're often taught that interrupting is rude. But when it comes to suicidal thoughts, an interruption could save a life.

If you take one thing away this World Su***de Prevention Day, it's this.

If you think someone might be struggling, don't worry about saying the perfect thing. Ask if they're OK. Show them you care. Start the conversation.

You never know what it could mean to someone.

Kinda funny way of treating stress as something to be slotted into a schedule by Henry Kissinger here, which is definitely... unique, to say the least. I think it's still a very interesting way of handling stress by ignoring it and to consciously reject the effects of stress on himself, and one that might be worth it to try out!

Pretty apt observation from Andrew Denton here in that pressure and stress are things that we encounter in our lives very often, daily even, and it's normal to struggle with them from time to time. The most important thing however, is to not let them take over and control you, and to treat them like the 'common cold' they are, a minor hiccup or road bump in your life.

With how competitive the job market is nowadays, there's a lot of pressure on people to try and shout their accomplishments out, often to the detriment of their mental health. Frank Ocean makes an interesting point here in that it shouldn't be necessary to do so, and that one should allow their work to speak for themselves instead.
