R U OK? Day: A Simple Question That Could Change a Life
Each year, R U OK? Day serves as a powerful reminder that asking one simple question—“Are you OK?”—can have a profound impact on someone’s mental wellbeing. Held annually in Australia, this national day of action encourages all of us to check in with our friends, family, colleagues, and even ourselves.
The goal? To create a world where we're all connected and protected from suicide by starting conversations that matter.
Why R U OK? Day Matters
Mental health challenges often go unnoticed. People may appear fine on the outside while silently struggling within. By asking "Are you OK?" in a genuine and non-judgmental way, we open the door for others to speak up and seek support.
It’s not about fixing someone’s problems—it’s about listening, showing empathy, and being there.
