预防自杀

Peers reaching out to peers is one of the best strategies for suicide prevention. 如果你在朋友身上看到了警告信号，不要忽视它们. Students in distress are more likely to approach their friends before they talk to a professional. 作为一名学生, you might be in a position where a friend may share their feelings with you more directly. 

校园资源

的 OU咨询中心 provides excellent resources on how to identify and approach troubled students.

You may not be comfortable approaching a fellow student about whom you are concerned. 还有其他选择. If you have a concern about a student, faculty, or staff member, you can:

• 咨询OU咨询中心的顾问，电话:(248)370-3465
• Consult the Dean of Students at (248) 370-3352 (for concerns about a student)
• 使用你的 报告和支持功能 (对在校学生适用). 

If you feel that an individual is in immediate d愤怒 of harming himself or herself or someone else, 请致电(248)370-3331联系OU警方.

我能为您做些什么??

向你的朋友伸出援手. 表达你的关心. 要直接和诚实. 鼓励寻求帮助，不要妄下论断, 表现出震惊或暗示你知道所有的答案. 最重要的是，随时准备倾听. You may not understand what your friend is going through, but you can help him/her through it. 不要当顾问.

Learn the resources available so that you can provide your friend with options. Be persistent – because of the stigma associated with getting professional help for mental health concerns, 你的朋友可能不愿意寻求他/她需要的帮助. Offer to call if he/she is reluctant, or offer to come to the first appointment. 第一步往往是最难的.

照顾好自己

Helping a friend who is struggling with a mental health problem can be very stressful. Recognize your own personal limits and be aware of your own needs for staying healthy. Remember, you are not a mental health care provider; you are simply a supportive friend. It is not your responsibility to save someone; your only responsibility is to care and get the person to help. 如果你需要帮助，不要犹豫，尽管去找!
