💙 Su***de Prevention Month 💙
September is Su***de Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness and deepen our understanding of mental health struggles.
This year, the latest statistics remind us of the urgency of our mission:
🔹 In 2023, approximately 48,000 people in the U.S. lost their lives to su***de.
🔹 Su***de remains a leading cause of death among young people aged 10-34.
🔹 For every su***de, there are an estimated 25 attempts.
These numbers underscore the importance of open conversations and proactive support. It’s crucial to reach out, whether you’re struggling or want to support someone who is. There is hope, and help is available.
If you or someone you know is in crisis, please don’t hesitate to contact the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline at 988, or text “HELLO” to 741741.
You are not alone, and there are people who care and want to help.
Let’s work together to create a world where everyone feels seen, heard, and supported. 🌟
