Celestine Ndinda, is having a conversation with a psychologist, William Deer, about how to help people who are thinking about taking their own lives.

They discuss the importance of empathy and listening without judgment. They also talk about the dangers of comparing oneself to others, as this can diminish a person's feelings and make them feel more alone.

Suicide is a growing problem, and there are many factors that can contribute to it, including social stigma, gender roles, and a lack of awareness about mental health.

It is important to be aware of the signs and symptoms of suicide, but it is also important to remember that everyone experiences mental health challenges differently.
