Don’t know how to start the conversation?

If you’ve been having thoughts of suicide and you don’t know how to tell someone you trust, then show them this post. You don’t have to say anything, just show them this message and allow it to be the conversation starter with your trusted person.

What do I do if someone has shown/sent me this post?

If you’ve been shown/sent this post, it means the person who shared it with you is struggling with suicidal thoughts. It’s ok to talk about it and ask how you can help or support them. Sometimes just telling someone can feel like a big relief and can be the first step to getting through this difficult time.

You can visit our website for helpful information around suicidal thoughts as well as find links to services and charities that can support you and the person who showed you this post: www.nottalone.org.uk

If you are worried about someone and don’t know what to say, Zero Suicide Alliance offer short, free online training courses to help build your confidence in talking about suicide: www.zerosuicidealliance.com/suicide-awareness-training-courses

Suicide: it’s ok to talk about it.

If you’re struggling to cope right now you can call 111 and select option 2 to speak to a mental health professional. You can call this number anytime, 24/7.

You are not alone 💛 ... See MoreSee Less

Character.AI enables users to create and interact with AI-powered characters that can behave like friends, mentors, fictional characters or romantic partners.

While these tools can feel engaging and emotionally supportive, they also introduce important safeguarding, wellbeing and privacy considerations for children and young people.

Our latest #WakeUpWednesday guide supports parents, carers and educators in understanding the risks and opening constructive conversations around AI companionship.

The guide explores:
• Inappropriate content and unreliable advice
• Emotional dependency and blurred boundaries
• Privacy concerns linked to personal information
• Warning signs such as secretive or excessive use
• Withdrawal from real-world activities and relationships
• Practical steps around age settings, limits and reporting concerns

With clear, accessible guidance, this resource helps adults support safer, more balanced and informed use of AI character platforms.
