If you're worried about someone else
You don't need to know what to say. Asking directly — "are you thinking about taking your life?" — doesn't increase the risk, and being asked is often a relief.
When it isn't an emergency, but it's heavy
Comdira has a piece for moments when everything feels like too much without being a crisis — what helps in the moment, and where the line is.
