CSFS Mental Health Clinicians have noted concern about the popular netflix series "13 Reasons Why". The series may glamorize suicide and lead to distress for young viewers. The storyline does not follow media guidelines set out by the Canadian Association of Suicide Prevention (CASP).
Please see the statement below from the Canadian Mental Health Association, and reach out for help for yourself or for others who may be feeling suicidal. Raising awareness about suicide and the effects of harmful media portrayals of suicide is very important. Please help us share this message. Mussi.
