Wanjiru describes suicide as a complex public-health issue influenced by different circumstances. She is also urging Kenyans to check on people who have suddenly become silent or appear to be struggling. Wanjiru says anyone experiencing suicidal thoughts should reach out to a trusted friend, psychologist or emergency service if they are in immediate danger.
