Telling you what’s hurting doesn’t make you weak, it makes you human. Strength begins with honesty. Let’s lean into connection, not isolation.

This visual is from The Depression Project, an incredible resource dedicated to breaking stigma and sharing tools for hope. It serves as a great reminder that su***de prevention works in layers. Building support, raising awareness, and stepping in during a crisis are all essential.

This month, we’re focusing on something that touches far too many lives: su***de prevention.

Here’s what we want you to remember:

-Talking about su***de saves lives.
-Reaching out makes a difference.
-No one has to carry their pain alone.

If you or someone you love is struggling, you are not alone. Help is available. Call or text 988 for the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline. Together, let’s remind each other that hope is always worth holding onto.

Fresh notebooks = fresh start.
Cute highlighters = emotional support.
New planner = delusional optimism (and I love that for you).

Whether it’s a new season, a new school year, or a new phase of life. Transitions take more energy than we give them credit for. You might feel off, emotional, or unsure. That doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. It means you’re human. Go gently.

Whether it’s deep convos or dumb jokes, human connection is what makes life meaningful. Reach out. Be awkward. Send that “thinking of you” text.

Reminder: It’s totally normal to cry in your car, smile at a stranger, spiral for 10 minutes, and then decide to reinvent yourself— all before lunch. Transitions are messy and beautiful and full of growth. Feel it all. You’re doing it right.

Sorry, but no one is going to feel butterflies forever. Love is not just a vibe, it’s a daily choice. Shoutout to Esther Perel for reminding us that love isn’t magic. It’s effort, intention, and sometimes taking out the trash without being asked.

Overshared in therapy? That’s called "Tuesday". Your therapist has heard it all. Bring the chaos, the cringe, and the childhood stories. There’s no “too much” when you’re healing.

Everyone’s just out here trying not to trip over their own feet. So go ahead... be awkward, wave too hard, laugh too loud, say the thing. The world needs more wonderfully weird humans like you.
