I hate Mother’s Day because my mum was a bully hell bent on destroying any sense of self-worth I might have. And it’s ok to say that. We don’t have to say nice things about our parents just because society expects it or us. #ruokday R U OK? #RecoveryPosse

Police shoot a mentally unwell woman with a beanbag round & she dies. She had threatened a real estate agent, who was evicting her.

It happened on R U OK?.

NSW police then decide to drop PACER, which demonstrably improves outcomes re police/mh cases.

Checking in after an R U OK? conversation reminds people you are there for them.

Pop a reminder in your diary to call them (or catch up in person) in a couple of weeks. If they're really struggling, follow up with them sooner.

When the loudest person in your circle becomes the quietest, ask why. R U OK? 💛
