每90分钟英国有人带着他们的生命。

World Suicide Prevention Day on 10 September seeks to recognise deaths globally and galvanise people to work together to prevent them.

自2010年以来,铁路行业已自杀预防计划。随着撒玛利亚人和英国运输警察,它努力减少铁路上的自杀人数,最近在我们更广泛的社区中。亚博账号登录

Ian Stevens, programme manager for suicide prevention at Network Rail, said: “It’s sometimes all too easy to forget that colleagues in the rail industry have their own issues, worries and concerns, which may from time to time make them think about taking their own lives.

“世界自杀预防日始终是我们反思这一点的好时机,并考虑如何最好地帮助同事通过困难时期找到自己的方式。

“There’s no special skill required to do that – just go up to a colleague and ask if they are okay, then show you care by listening to their answer. Listening is such a powerful tool and can really help someone that is struggling to resolve personal issues.”

这五个提示可以帮助您成为一个伟大的倾听者:

  • Show you care: focus just on the other person, make eye contact, put away your phone
  • Have patience: it may take time and several attempts before a person is ready to open up
  • Use open questions: that need more than a yes or no answer, and follow up e.g. ‘Tell me more’
  • Say it back: to check you’ve understood but don’t interrupt or offer a solution
  • Have courage: don’t be put off by a negative response and, most importantly, don’t be afraid to leave silence.
一点小谈话可以是所有需要帮助才能在恢复旅程中开始

Our colleagues at Samaritans endorse this approach and it’s at the heart of the service they offer those who ring them seeking support. They believe listening is crucial to helping people find their way through their problems, particularly if they can be encouraged to share them early rather than wait until they have reached a crisis point.

Ian said: “On World Suicide Prevention Day why not approach a colleague you might have concerns about and just ask, ‘Are you okay?’ Then really listen and show a genuine interest in their response.

“After 10 September, why not make it a habit from time to time? Everyone needs a bit of support and your actions might just help save a colleague’s life.”
