This wasn't how it was supposed to be. Every eleven minutes someone dies from a suicide. Every 23 seconds, someone attempts one. If you or anyone you know is suicidal call/text 988. You are not alone. Hope and healing are real. This is not the end of your story. ♥️

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay. Take some time for yourself today. Maybe reach out to an old friend or text a loved one and let them know what they mean to you. We’re all in this together. It is okay to not be okay. Today and every day, we can come together to #EndTheStigma.

Each year, we lose far too many young people to suicide. Our own screening data shows that the % of people who reported thoughts of suicide and self-harm in 2021 was higher than ever recorded. Learn more about suicide and #SuicidePrevention here: bit.ly/3csjdtp #NSPW

When was the last time you did something for yourself? Take a moment today to do something just for you, because self-care isn't selfish – it's necessary.

A simple text or phone call can go a long way. This weekend, reach out to a loved one and see how they are really doing. You never know who may be struggling in silence. ❤️

@ProjectWakeUp_ We’re a mental health nonprofit started in 2014 after losing two of our friends to suicide in college. I’d love to show you our documentary on the mental health crisis in the US and what people are doing to bolster suicide prevention. Visit projectwakeup.org
