💙 Check In, It Could Make a Difference 💙 It’s not always easy to tell when someone is struggling with their mental health. Signs like withdrawals, mood changes, disrupted sleep, or appetite changes can be subtle. If you’re worried about someone, a simple check-in can mean more than you think. Knowing what to look for and how to start the conversation can help. Find guidance in our Support Toolkit: ll.org.au/offering-support #YouAreNotAlone #CheckIn #MentalHealthMatters #SupportToolkit #lifelinedarlingdownssouthwestqldltd
