Happy #WorldMentalHealthDay Your mental health should be a priority, every day. 💙 Artwork by @LexiMire

Mid-week reminder: All your feelings are valid, including those that are difficult or unexpected. Allow yourself to feel whatever comes. 🫶

The world is a better place with you in it.

Stories save lives. We know from research that suicide can be prevented and that sharing personal experiences can be a powerful tool in preventing suicide. It’s critical that everyone feels empowered and supported when bravely talking about their mental health experiences.

When we come together, we remind each other that hope is still possible, even on days that feel heavier than the last. 💙 Healing happens when communities gather, take time to discuss grief, and acknowledge that everyone heals in their own way and at their own pace.

From sadness and anger to love and even laughter, grief can bring up a wide range of emotions. No matter what you’re feeling, remember, you’re allowed to feel it. It’s important to acknowledge those emotions as they come instead of holding them in.

How do you nurture your mental health? 🧠✨💙

Of people who die by suicide, almost half had contact with their primary care provider in the month before death, putting them in a unique position to identify patients at risk of suicide and enact intervention methods. Read: afsp.org/training-health-pro… #NationalPrimaryCareWeek
