Checking Up On Others , Dr Murray Wright

When we’re going through difficult times, it’s really important to look out for those people who are close to you. I’m talking about family, friends, neighbours and work colleagues. We actually know these people really well and we can tell if they’re not behaving like their normal selves. 

It’s important if you know someone and you think they’re not coping very well, to ask them if they’re OK. Sometimes people worry that asking that question is going to make people feel worse. It doesn’t.

In fact the opposite is true. They find it very reassuring to be able to talk about how they’re feeling and to get some advice. Simply asking people if they’re ok doesn’t require special skills. You just need to be able to listen and provide non-judgemental support.

If the issue comes up, you can tell someone how they might be able to talk to their GP or other health provider, but there are also lots of helpful resources online.
