Today, being the last day of September is also the last day of “National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month” which is a month long campaign used to raise awareness on this still very stigmatized and taboo topic.
Although it may only be a month long campaign, it doesn’t mean that it ends today. The conversation needs to continue each and every day.
We MUST continue to keep the conversation going.
We MUST continue to give hope to everyone affected by Suicide.
We MUST continue to educate others.
We MUST ensure that ALL individuals, families, and friends have the same accessibility to the necessary resources available to give us all a better understanding of how to prevent suicide and seek help.
We MUST continue to build connections, reaching out to our loved ones, both vulnerable and strong.
And we MUST continue to band together with the truest of intentions and from the heart, to support anyone and everyone who wake up each and every day battling very intrusive and very real thoughts of suicide with kindness and compassion, always.
Promise me.
You are not alone.
