"When you are tempted to give up, your breakthrough is probably just around the corner." — Joyce Meyer Suicide, a haunting global issue, casts a somber shadow on both the individual in despair and all who cross their path. Amidst unrelenting pressures in academics, careers, and relationships, the human spirit may wither, leaving one emotionally and physically drained. To ease these burdens in our harsh world, kindness is essential, as we can never truly comprehend others' silent struggles. World Suicide Prevention Day is a worldwide call to action, sparking hope through awareness. Helphen India encourages everyone to prioritize their mental well-being and extend compassion to those in need. Consider bridges not only as structures spanning gaps but also as symbols of support for life's formidable challenges. Today, let us embody that bridge, offering strength and a lifeline to those seeking our assistance. #helphen #suicideprevention #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #depression #anxiety #mentalhealthmatters #suicide #suicideawarness #mentalillness #selfcare #youarenotalone #loveyourself #hope

Award-winning journalist turned Mental Health Advocate. Non-profit org Founder/President, Giving Voice to Depression podcast producer/cohost
NEW: If you think talking about #depression or #mentalhealth is uncomfortable or stigmatized consider the reality of having suicidal ideations and it's easy to understand why people don't share them- and how keeping them secret can have devastating consequences. Join us for a powerful episode of Giving Voice to Depression, "Why You Have to Tell Someone if You're Suicidal." Our guest Katie candidly shares the thoughts that led her to meticulously plan to end her life. What changed that plan? Sharing it with a loved one who immediately took steps to protect and support her. It's a rare 35-minute long "deep dive" into a truth that is not acknowledged and discussed enough- that despairing/suicidal thoughts are a common symptom of a common illness (depression) and can be treated as such. Hosts Dr. Anita Sanz and Terry McGuire delve into the deceptive nature of depression and the life-saving significance of breaking the silence. https://lnkd.in/gjAiuQFY RehabPath Families for Depression Awareness NAMI NAMI Wisconsin Mental Health America American Foundation for Suicide Prevention #suicideprevention #mentalhealth #depressionawareness Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA) Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance – National Headquarters

Recently, I contributed to a series of testimonials for The WHO Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean (EMRO)'s campaign promoting mental health literacy. These videos aim to counter stigma, empower individuals with lived experience, and shape policies and services for mental health and substance use disorders. According to WHO EMRO, "Mental health problems are among the top 10 leading causes of disease burden worldwide and the single largest contributor to years lived with disability." It's staggering that "at any given time, one person in every 10 is suffering from a mental health problem, and more than 20% of people who have experienced an emergency are estimated to be suffering from a mental disorder such as depression, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder." Let's join hands to combat stigma and promote mental health awareness. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Team Taskeen for their unwavering support throughout this process. Sharing one's own mental health story can be challenging, and their exceptional team made the video shoot much smoother. Sinan Charania's commendable resourcefulness and Taha Sabri's leadership were monumental. A special thanks and praise to Hamail Ali Khan for her invaluable support and hard work. Mental health advocacy is not just a cause I support; it's a fundamental aspect of my life. No one should ever feel isolated in their battle against mental illness. That's why I am dedicated to tirelessly advocating for a society that is inclusive and accessible to all, ensuring that no one is left behind or marginalized. #mentalhealthawareness #endstigma #whoemro #mentalhealthliteracy #onestepatatime #peoplewithlivedexperience #mentalhealthadvocacy #projectsemicolon #ourstoryisntoveryet #communityengagement #mentalhealthforall #zehnisehatsabkahaq #taskeenpakistan

While the discussion of mental wellbeing in the construction industry is a fairly new and hot topic, my friend, Terry, set up her Giving Voice To Depression podcast years ago. Her on-screen journalist and voice talent background support her passion for the subject and cause. These are great to listen to either for yourself — or to better understand family or friends that struggle. This episode is: “Listening is a Loving Gift We Can All Offer — and delves into the profound act of listening as a powerful tool in supporting those living with depression.”

Did you know… Suicide prevention awareness supports research and data collection to better understand suicide risk factors and effective prevention strategies? These campaigns advocate for policies that improve mental health services and increase funding for suicide prevention initiatives. . I’m sure you have ALL heard, “the only guarantee in life is change.” Change is inevitable and believe it or not change is very healthy for our own growth, inspiration, and development. If things did not change, we would not be living! Living is about evolution and movement. . Living in a world of constant change we as humans try to hold on to unnecessary stuff but dream or wish for BETTER. Isn’t that contradicting what is a natural occurrence? . Just for a while of only feeling O.K. but allowing yourself to believe in your heart that YOU WILL BE in a better place moving forward can inspire a healthy, productive, and successful life of EVOLUTIONARY GREATNESS! IT IS OK TO FEEL OK! ; then I knew, I AM OK! . CALL OR TEXT 988 if you are feeling depressed, suicidal or are in a crisis! THERE IS ALWAYS HELP! YOU ARE NOT ALONE! . #BeThe1To #suicideprevention #suicideawareness #speakup #bekind ~Khanya, Love & Blessings 💜🙏🏾🦋 LadyTea 👑~ #beherenow #livenow #livelaughlove #yougotthis #readysetgo #soulsearching #balance #wholeness #community #generationalhealing #consciousness #bethechange #loveyourself #raiseyourvibration #follow #PositiveVibes #intuition #instalove #thrive #itsalifestyle #2023 #mindset #divinegoddessofharmony
