Today is World Suicide Prevention Day, aimed at raising awareness and tackling stigma around mental health. Campaigners say the day encourages open conversations about emotional distress. They warn many people struggle to ask for help or share what they are going through. South African Comedian Barry Hilton has spoken publicly about his own experiences to help bring the issue into the open.. My colleague, Tracey Boomgaard caught up with Barry Hilton and began by asking him why it remains so difficult for people to openly say, "I'm not okay" or ask for help when they are struggling.
