This month marks the one-year anniversary of the pandemic. This has been a year of extreme loss – from the loss of more than 500,000 Americans, to the loss of our routines and ability to connect in person our loved ones.

In this blog I share some of my story. My own crisis transformed me, led me to focus my life’s work on suicide prevention. We MUST STOP discouraging doctors (& all ppl) from taking care of their mental health. #vulnerabilityassuperpower #StopSuicide @afspnational @drbreenheroes

You don’t have to be suicidal or in crisis to call the Lifeline. People call to talk about lots of things: substance use, economic worries, relationships, mental and physical illness, and more. No topic is off limits. If you are struggling, call @800273TALK

Thanks @HodaAndJenna @TODAYshow for covering the importance of suicide prevention. We can all do our part by living out the value that mental health matters. Like phys health, we can take care of mental health in our own life and in our loves ones’ too. #RealConvo @afspnational
.@cmoutierMD shares how parents can create a safe space to talk to their children about mental health and suicide. If you or someone you know is at risk of suicide please call the U.S. National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-8255.
