Beyond “Are You Okay?”

Sometimes, asking “Are you okay?” is just the beginning. But what happens when someone says “I’m fine” while silently struggling? 💭 Mental health challenges and emotional distress don't always show up in obvious ways. A colleague may become quieter, withdraw from conversations, seem unusually stressed, or behave differently than usual. Recognizing these changes and responding with empathy can help create a more supportive workplace.
