Emily Swallow Instagram – You know that friend you’ve been thinking about checking on? CALL THEM.
September is Suicide Prevention Month.
Two of the factors that most contribute to suicidal tendencies are isolation and feeling like a burden. But I’m here to tell you that you are NOT alone. You are NOT a burden. And having mental health issues doesn’t make you weird or weak or a nuisance.
For #thisisthewaywednesday I ask you to check in on each other. Offer a compassionate ear. You don’t have to have brilliant advice or any solution other than to listen and let that person know they are seen and heard and loved.
Check out the @namicommunicate website for some helpful guidance in reaching out.
*IF SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS EXPERIENCING A MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS, CALL OR TEXT 988 IMMEDIATELY.*
