PSA: SU***DE AWARENESS POST
As Christmas closes in on us, I wanted to share a few things with you.
As many of you know, and have felt yourself, this year has been hard! I had felt like quitting more times than I can count. This business can be hard and sometimes finding the motivation to continue is even harder. I know I haven’t done as many markets this year and been more present on socials. I just needed a break. And I appreciate you for your understanding and patience!
The holidays are about family, and being together, presents, lights, Christmas trees, making cookies, etc. And I hope that all of you that celebrate this season, cherish it all! Every moment! Because we never know when it will be someone’s last Christmas.
Earlier this month our family suffered two losses to su***de. I know this can be a heavy topic, but it is one that needs to be talked about more. So that’s why I’m sharing.
My nephew, Greysan, was 27 and took his own life on December 4th.
My niece, Ki-Lee just turned 29 and took her life on December 11th.
One week apart. Two devastating losses. Two kids who had their whole life ahead of them. Two people whom we love so much and would’ve done anything to keep them here.
If someone you know if hurting, or needs help, please reach out. Talk to someone. There are so many resources available. But sometimes, it’s not enough. Mental health isn’t a stigma. Su***de isn’t taboo to talk about.
Please be kind! This Christmas, hold your loved ones tighter, tell them you love them, and have empathy towards others. 🎄💔 😇 😇
