I may be broken, but my brokenness makes me beautiful, as I am “uniquely broken”. I may be vulnerable but my vulnerability makes me strong, as it pushes me to seek connection. I am enough just as I am, and so are you. You matter. You are not alone. You are enough. ***de ***dePreventionAwareness

Discrimination against individuals identifying as LGBTQ+ has been associated with higher rates of psychiatric disorders, substance misuse, and su***de. Pride month is coming to an end but tolerance and concern for other humans is not confined to one month. ***de

Men die by su***de in numbers almost four times those of women. These rates are likely influenced by how men deal with stress. As men, we often suppress feelings until they erupt as irritability or we may simply isolate ourselves by avoiding social contacts altogether. It’s time to break the silence. ***de

The idea that su***de is a “white problem” and that Black and brown people don’t attempt su***de, is a myth. While stigma and the fear of being judged may keep us from talking about depression or suicidal thoughts, su***de rates are increasing in our communities. Su***de doesn’t discriminate. ***de

If depression tells you that su***de is the only way out of your intense emotional pain, remember, depression is a liar. It is a serious, but treatable illness. Don’t let the lies depression tells you make you believe there is no hope. There is help. There is hope. ***de

If I could take away your pain today and convince you that your life will get better, I would. If I could convince you that the world is better with you in it, I would. But if I can’t do that, I can be here, and listen, and tell you I’m sorry you’re hurting. You matter and you are enough. ***de

I recall a high school coach of mine, who would yell, “rub some dirt on it”, whenever one of us players sustained a physical injury. Obviously, this was not healing or helpful, much like telling a person battling depression or suicidal thoughts to, “just snap out of it” or “think happy thoughts”, isn’t healing or helpful. ***de

A person living with mental health challenges needs social support. Remind them often, that you're there for them, and that you're not giving up, so neither should they. When setbacks occur, encourage them to keep moving forward. Help them to live their best life. ***de

It is important to me that I teach my sons that it’s normal to feel stressed, or afraid, or sad, or lonely at times. Everyone does; even Dad. Recognizing these feelings and knowing that stressful times pass, and life gets better, can help children build resilience. ***de

People living with mental health challenges should be able to focus on recovery, not worry about where their next meal will come from or how they’ll afford their medications. You can’t effectively treat people without addressing the social drivers that impact health. ***de

Trauma can be crippling and debilitating, but learning to live with past trauma and to love yourself unconditionally, can be transformative and healing. True healing begins with selfcare. And selfcare begins with understanding your value and self worth. You matter! ***de

If you’re a man living with severe depression or anxiety, and you keep silent because you’ve been taught that vulnerability is weakness and that you just need to “man up”, dismiss that misinformation, and get help. It is never weak to say, I can’t do this alone. ***de

While the cause of su***de is very complex, the fact remains that su***des are often preventable. If we believe there is nothing we can do to prevent su***des, nothing will change. It’s time to end the stigma, normalize the conversation, and stop su***de. ***de

If you’re having suicidal thoughts, please know that you’re not alone, and that feeling suicidal doesn’t mean you’re flawed or broken. It does signal that you’re experiencing more pain or sadness than you can cope with alone right now. You can call or text 988 to be connected with someone who can help. ***de

If you’re struggling and not sure if you want to live or die; stop, breathe, and remember this. Suicidal thoughts aren’t permanent, things can and do get better, and you can find motivation to live again. You may have reasons for wanting to die but you also have reasons to live. ***de
