Love can be scary, especially if healthy expressions of love are foreign to us. ❤️‍🩹

Whether it’s romantic, platonic, or familial, love requires that we both give and receive, and that can be hard. But showing love to others is just as good for your mental health as self-love, and can help you learn how to accept love when it comes your way.

Stories save lives.

We know from research that su***de can be prevented. We also know that sharing personal experiences can be a powerful tool in preventing su***de. But, for many, opening up about mental health isn’t always easy.

We all have a role to play in normalizing the conversation about su***de in Black and African American communities. It’s critical that everyone feels empowered and supported when bravely talking about their mental health experiences. Together, we can make a difference.
