With it being National Suicide Prevention Month, I want those of you struggling with depression to know that you do not have to struggle in silence, and there are many tools available to help you. I am privileged to have a partnership with the best wellness center out there, Aspen Valley, which is full of other amazing health practitioners. Many of which are therapists that specialize in depression and anxiety. We also offer other tools to further support your mental health like neurofeedback and oxygen therapy. And if you don't know by now, what you eat significantly impacts your mental health. (That's where I come in). It's why you often hear me say "food becomes mood." Please know that you are not alone. You are supported. You are seen. You are loved. #youmatter

I asked @nadiratani if it was ok that I share this. I think this is such an important issue. Please check out her post. Reposted from @nadiratani - (Please read & if youd like to donate theres a link in my profile) A couple days ago a friend of mine asked me if I wanted to participate in the Out of the Darkness suicide awareness walk with them. I said yes and just did the registration today. Its funny how things come back around because Im wearing a special bracelet in the photo that the website chose as my profile. It's a set of waistbeads that i made specifically during a time when i felt so disconnected from the world. I felt like i wasnt grounded... like at any moment id float away or dissolve. Everytime I looked at the beads, I would remind myself that I am here and I wore them until they literally broke off. My walk through this developing knowledge of my own mental health has been (and continues to be) an interesting one. I am fortunate to be able to look back and see how much ive changed. I've learned what things trigger me and how to deal. Sometimes i still have those days where i feel like a big pile of nothing but i also have days when joy rolls thru me like avalanches. I try to keep my head up thru it all. So on Feb 2nd im going to do this walk with my friend. If they need me to, I will hold their hand. If you need me to, I'll hold yours too. If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. -African proverb #afsp #suicideawarenessandprevention #suicideprevention #suicideawareness #afspoutofthedarknesswalk - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs_XTQ-B9tQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xdxxwczlgsdv

Today is world suicide prevention day! Remember it’s okay to ask someone you are worried about if they are thinking about suicide, it can really help. As someone who has experienced the thoughts of suicide it is really helpful to feel like you can talk openly about with someone you trust!
