It’s important to have a plan in place in case you feel upset or troubled by posts that you have shared or seen. This could be time away from a screen, unfollowing someone or talking to someone you trust. This character was designed by Caleb during one of our recent #chatsafe workshops with young people. #MentalHealth #SuicidePrevention #SelfCare #StayConnected #ItsOkayNotToBeOkay #MentalHealthAwareness #EndTheSilence #Tips

The students we worked with at @rmituniversity helped us develop new content. Throughout the year we were very impressed with what they created and how insightful their reflections on the #chatsafe co-design process were. They helped us come up with ways to share stories of hope and recovery safely, how to keep social media as a safe space for everyone, and ways we can practice self-care online and offline. We can't wait to share their ideas with you!
