Over the years, the well known telecom company BT have had many emotive campaigns and slogans:
The friendly face…
It’s for you
Get through to someone
Friends & family
It’s good to talk
Tell someone
Phone home
Stay in touch
I wonder if BT knew how much these phrases really meant to people. Especially now as we focus more and more on mental health.
Everyone of these phrases is something we should take on board. Not only for ourselves, but for other people.
Let us be the people whom others can turn to. Maybe we could be a friendly face for someone who is struggling to get through. You never know if you could be their lifeline.
Likewise, if you feel you need to tell someone something, do not be afraid to pick up the phone. Speak to a loved one, or someone you trust. There are plenty of organisations too that will help. Don’t be afraid to tell someone you if you are struggling.
It’s good to talk.
