Enabling Conversations toolkit - resource for young people

This guide was created by and for young people to find help and support when experiencing feelings about suicide. This was created by Suicide Prevention Scotland in conjunction with V&A Dundee.

This is a tool to help young people discover ways they can talk to others about feelings like self-harm and suicide, in a way that they feel comfortable and in control.

Young people can use this toolkit to help them decide on:

• A safe and trusted person to talk to

• An environment you feel secure in

• Little things to keep you grounded

Most importantly it can give them confidence in the methods they've chosen to explain their feelings their way, talk honestly about their situation, and build a support system around them.
