October is also National Bullying Prevention Month.

Bullying is more than just bantering—it’s a deliberate act intended to cause harm. It damages the victim and leaves lasting scars.

This month, let’s commit to taking real action:

• Speak up: Don’t look away when you witness harmful, oppressive behavior. Speak up and report it. 🗣️

• Support those affected: Encourage them to seek help, connect with trusted adults, and know they are not alone.

• Educate yourself and others about bullying: Learn the signs, understand its effects, and share strategies to prevent it.

• Promote positive environments: Encourage inclusion, respect, and kindness at school, work, and online. 🏫💻

Together, we can create a culture where kindness reigns supreme and everyone feels valued. 🤝💖

🌍 It’s World Mental Health Day, and we have a gentle reminder for you: check in with yourself. Pause, breathe, and pay attention to the stress, worries, and emotions that you’ve been holding on to—your mental health deserves the same care and attention as your physical health.

If you think you need help, don’t hesitate to ask for it. You can’t out-hustle burnout, out-run anxiety, or out-laugh depression, but you can take away their power over your life by seeking professional support.

Here at Balanced Mental Health of Arizona, we provide compassionate, evidence-based care that meets you where you are, validates your struggles, and ultimately equips you to rise above your mental health challenges.

Domestic violence doesn’t always leave bruises you can see—it leaves wounds that cut deep into the mind and spirit and linger long after the abuse ends.

Survivors are at greater risk for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and even substance use disorder, and such an impact can last a lifetime.

This National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, let’s honor the lives lost, uplift the voices of survivors, and remind every victim that healing is possible and help is within reach.

If you think someone you know is being abused, here are some ways you can make a difference, safely and effectively:

- Be a Compassionate and Nonjudgmental Listener: If the person does decide to talk, listen without judgment or criticism. Likewise, avoid offering advice or suggesting solutions. Allow them to share their experiences at their own pace and reassure them that they are heard, understood, and supported.

- Respect Their Decisions: Understand that leaving an abusive situation or relationship takes a lot of courage and time. Respect their choices and avoid pressuring them to act in a way that they are not ready for.

- Offer Practical Assistance: Help with practical needs such as getting transportation, finding temporary housing, or securing financial assistance. Sometimes, even small acts can make a big difference in their safety and well-being.

- Provide Resources and Information: Share contact information for local shelters and support services. Many organizations offer confidential help, counseling, and legal assistance. Make sure they know about the National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-SAFE).

- Help Create a Safety Plan: Assist in developing a safety plan, including steps to take if they need to leave quickly. This can involve planning safe places to go, gathering essential documents, and identifying trusted individuals who can offer shelter or support.

- Know When to Call the Police: If you think the person is in imminent danger, even if it’s against their wishes, call the police. If you are unsure whether a situation warrants police involvement, err on the side of caution and make the call.

- Advocate for Professional Help: When the victim is out of danger, encourage them to seek mental health support. This is crucial for their recovery. If they’re in the Phoenix, AZ area, reach out to us here at Balanced Mental Health of Arizona. Call us at (623) 349-1711 to schedule an appointment.

🙅 “Lazy.”
🙅 “Chaotic.”
🙅 “Irresponsible.”
🙅 “Scatterbrained.”
🙅 “Stupid.”

These disparaging words have unfairly followed people living with ADHD for too long, and the stigma surrounding the condition has kept them from seeking the help they need.

This ADHD Awareness Month, let’s commit to changing the narrative. Here at Balanced Mental Health of Arizona, we uphold the truth: ADHD is neither a moral failing nor a cumulative effect of poor parenting. It is a REAL neurodevelopmental condition that needs proper treatment, and people who have it deserve love, respect, and support.

We’re here to provide compassionate, evidence-based care to help children and adults with ADHD rise above their challenges and reach their full potential. To schedule an appointment with one of our providers, contact (623) 349-1711.

Believe it or not, your words have power. 📣 When speaking to someone with mental health struggles, what you tell them can either open the door to healing or slam it shut.

So, if someone confides in you, avoid saying these things:

❌ “Just think positive.”
❌ “Snap out of it.”
❌ “You’re being dramatic.”
❌ “It’s all in your head.”
❌ “Other people have it worse.”
❌ “But your life is so good!”
❌ “You don’t look depressed.”
❌ “You’re just trying to get attention.”
❌ “Everyone feels like that sometimes.”
❌ “You’re too sensitive.”
❌ “You’re strong — you’ll be fine.”
❌ “Aren’t you over that yet?”
❌ “You’re not trying hard enough.”
❌ “Stop being so negative.”
❌ “Therapy is for weak people.”

When in doubt, just listen. Choose to believe them, sit with them through their pain, and support them.

Bisexuality is nothing to be ashamed of—it’s neither a crime nor a glitch in the system. But society treats it as such. Bi folks are often met with contempt or derision in both straight and q***r circles, and this is why they face disproportionately high rates of depression, anxiety, and other mental health challenges.

To every bi person who feels like they have to shrink themselves to be accepted, you don’t have to. You don’t owe anyone an explanation. You don’t need to “prove” anything to anyone. Your identity is worth celebrating.

If you’re dealing with mental health challenges, turn to us here at Balanced Mental Health of Arizona. We offer compassionate, inclusive, gender-affirming care—designed to meet you where you are, honor who you are, and empower you to live freely and apologetically.

We provide ongoing guidance and monitoring to help you sort through what’s temporary, what’s tolerable, and what’s not okay, so you can make informed decisions.

🕯️ Today, we pay tribute to every survivor, every life lost, every family changed, and every person who ran toward danger for someone whose name they don’t even know and never made it back.

Let’s carry the spirit of humanity forward. Let’s honor this day by treating the people around us with compassion, remembering with reverence, and never turning away from the truth of what was lost.

Many high-achieving, hardworking, caring, and seemingly happy people suffer in silence — and sometimes, take their lives. Pain is not always tangible, and there’s no blueprint for it.

So what if we stopped waiting for visible signs of struggle before we decided to care? Kindness costs nothing. But to someone who has come to the end of themself, it can mean everything.

To every mental health warrior reading this: you may not believe it right now, but the world is different because you’re in it. Someone is still alive because you showed up for them.
You matter. You’re loved. You’re not alone. And it’s okay to seek help.

Balanced Mental Health of Arizona exists for exactly this reason.📞 Let’s talk. Reach out to us at (623) 349-1711 to book an appointment with our mental health expert.

Today is International Overdose Awareness Day, a day to remember the lives that unraveled too soon and show support to the individuals who are still struggling to break free from substance use disorder.

Many people turn to substance use to fill the void, to drown their sorrows, or to numb the pain. They don’t need condemnation. What they need is someone to show them that they are not beyond redemption, give them the extra push, and believe in their strength to rebuild a life filled with hope, purpose, and meaning.

If someone you care about is treading the dangerous path, don’t wait. If you don’t think you can help them, at least connect them to the people who can.

We’re here to provide the evidence-based, nonjudgmental, compassionate care and support they need, and we’ll meet them where they are. Call us during our office hours to schedule an appointment: (623) 349-1711.
