🌟 September is Suicide Prevention Month. Let's be a resource for each other! 🌟

Physicians dedicate themselves to caring for others, but we must also prioritize our own well-being and that of our colleagues. Here are 5 red flags that may indicate someone is struggling with mental health:

1️⃣ Frequent absences or lateness
2️⃣ Changes in personal appearance
3️⃣ Increased nervousness
4️⃣ Unpredictable behavior
5️⃣ Substance abuse

Let’s be proactive, support one another, and break the silence around mental health in our field. If you or someone you know is struggling, don’t hesitate to reach out for help. Call 988 for support. 💙
