"Some 5,000 people have died by suicide in the North in the 20 years since the Good Friday Agreement was signed."
The suicide epidemic among Northern Ireland’s “Ceasefire Babies” newstatesman.com/politics/north…
We all have our different points of view on this Island politically & that's healthy!
However, if ONE thing should unite us ALL, it's the wellbeing of our citizens, & mental health awareness MUST come top of any future discussion, it's that simple!
If we really want a new inclusive SharedIreland & proclaim to care about everyone living on this Island, regardless of political beliefs or religious tradition - surely finding a way to help promote and tackle this crippling problem must take priority...
...for ALL political representatives!
Unfortunately, we all get caught up in fighting elections, trying to make our point, talking about borders & Brexit etc - but does any of this really matter if we are losing young lives by suicide on a daily basis?...No!
