Talking to someone you trust
A teacher, a friend, a family member, a counsellor. Starting with one sentence — "I've not been okay lately" — is enough.
If a friend reaches out to you
Listen without fixing. Don't promise secrecy if they are in danger. Help them contact a helpline or a trusted adult.
Small things that help
Sleep, food, sunlight, movement, and time away from the screen. They aren't a cure, but they make hard days a little easier.
