Today is World Suicide Prevention Day; “Creating Hope Through Action”

I am on my way to give my book talk at the Richmond Hill United Church.

Since I began sharing my journey so openly some 6 years ago, I have made myself a promise to never stop sharing my story.

I have made myself a promise to never stop educating those who are willing to listen.

I have made myself a promise to  never stop helping others understand how it feels to live with a mental illness; to feel broken, shame, hopelessness or suicidal.

I have made myself a promise that no one ever feel alone in their struggle and that they always know, no matter what, it’s okay to ask for help because you are worthy of it.

Opening up conversations about mental health and suicide saves lives.
