A5: It's a common fear that asking others about #suicide will put the idea in their head - but that is NOT true. Asking directly "Are you thinking about suicide?" shows that you care and are someone they can talk to about how they're feeling. #WWPChat cohenveteransnetwork.org/suicideprevent…

A3: One of the biggest red flags to look for is a shift in behavior. This article is a great resource to learn about the potential warning signs and what you can do to help prevent #VeteranSuicide: wwp.news/3R6QRGW #WWPChat

Signs like withdrawal, depressed mood, and speaking about suicide vary from person to person but may not be present. The best thing to do is talk honestly and listen openly. It takes an immense amount of strength to talk about difficult feelings. #WWPChat #SuicidePrevention

Q3: Are there signs that someone is at risk for suicide that a family member, friend, or coworker can look for? #WWPChat
