🍀 The St. Patrick’s Day celebrations are starting early this weekend! 🍀

Many may begin celebrating before the holiday on Tuesday, so make sure your sober ride home is part of the plan too. Don’t rely on luck—plan ahead.

✅ Choose a sober driver
🚕 Use a rideshare or taxi
🏠 Stay the night if needed

Look out for your friends and help keep everyone safe on the roads. Celebrate responsibly and make it a weekend to remember—for the right reasons.

🍀 Drive sober. Arrive alive.

Depression
Anger, Increased Irritability
Lack of Interest
Sudden Increase/Decrease in Appetite
Sudden Changes in Appearance
Dwindling Academic Performance
Preoccupation with Death and Su***de
Previous Su***de Attempts
Final Arrangements

By themselves, many of these observations are not sure signs that someone is suicidal, but could mean that they are struggling with issues in their lives and could use help. If these issues are not addressed or treated, they can result in suicidal thoughts or attempts.
