***dePreventionMonth You don't need to be a professional to know what to say to a loved one who may be in need of support. You don't have to be good at public speaking to talk with your loved one about their need for additional support. Your willingness to start the conversation, keep it going, listen, and provide your presence means more to your loved one than you might know.

Keep the momentum going after your initial conversation with your loved one. Extend the conversation by checking in on your loved one to see how they are doing. Remain connected. Acknowledge their bravery and any steps made toward asking for help, seeking support, connecting with resources, following through with suggestions and recommendations.

Alarming increase in su***de rates among Black children and teens!!!

Did you know? Black children between the ages of 5 and 12 are approximately twice as likely to die by su***de as their White peers.

Did you know? In 2021, 15% of Black high school students reported attempting su***de, with nearly 1 in 20 needing medical attention.

CONNECTIONS SAVE LIVES!!!
Connections within families, villages, communities and professional arenas help to prevent and protect against these Alarming stats. Here what you can do:

● Support evidence-based resiliency programs in Black youth with a focus on protective factors
● Promote early recognition of su***de factors
● Advocate for increased investments in programs that build a more culturally competent and minority-representative helping professionals
● Improve identification, access to care, and retention in mental health and substance use treatment for Black youth
● Stay connected with our Black youth

***dePreventionMonth reminds us that silence can cost lives — and conversation can save them. Su***de is particularly prevalent among Black men, who die by su***de at a rate more than four times that of Black women. A recent study from the University of Georgia followed more than 500 African American men from their late teens through early 20s in rural Georgia over the course of several years. “I think we often don’t look at where the disparities are and who the individuals most at risk are when we’re talking about su***de ideation” (Micheal Curtis, co-author).

Dr. E always says, "Be patient, kind, and gentle with yourself in thought, word, and deed."

This is self-compassion! It's the way you choose to treat and speak to yourself with understanding and kindness, especially during times of struggle, pain, inadequacy, and suffering. Often, we are our own worst enemy and the harshest critics of ourselves. Stinking thinking leads to funky feelings. Don't confuse your funky feelings for facts about you or your reality! Being self-compassionate is your ability to connect and engage with yourself through self-love, self-support, self-forgiveness, and self-acceptance, even in the face of unfavorable circumstances.

Showing compassion toward others is a kind gesture. Practicing self-compassion is a choice. Living with self-compassion is necessary to cultivate and advance your wellness.

Some ways to practice self-compassion:

• Develop and recite a self-compassion mantra.

• Ask yourself, what do you need to hear in the moment to express and treat yourself with kindness.

• Write a letter to yourself.

• Reframe negative self-thoughts.
Think of things you do and have
done well.

• Talk to yourself as if you were talking to a friend.

• Choose to put yourself in spaces and places and surround yourself with faces that make you feel good.
