๐ฑ Wellness Wednesday | World Su***de Prevention Day ๐ฑ
Today, on World Su***de Prevention Day, weโre reminded that mental health matters, and we all have a part to play in supporting one another.
Every year, more than 700,000 people lose their lives to su***de โ thatโs one person every 40 seconds.
This yearโs theme is โChanging the Narrativeโ โ challenging stigma, promoting hope, and reshaping how we talk about su***de and mental health. Even the smallest gestures โ a kind word, a simple check-in, or just being present โ can make a real difference.
๐ Itโs okay not to be okay.
Taking that first step โ asking for help, sharing how you feel, or reaching out to someone else โ can begin the healing process.
