Check in on someone who is having a hard time

Reach out to a person who is struggling and let them know you care.

Why it helps

People in difficult times often feel alone and hesitate to ask for support. A simple message shows they are not forgotten.

How to do it

1. Think of someone who has had a tough period lately.
2. Send a message that expresses care without asking for details.
3. Make it clear they don't need to reply.

Make it easier

Send a simple 'Thinking of you today.'

Make it harder

Offer something specific, like a walk or a meal.

Don't push them to talk, and avoid unrequested advice.
