You don't have to be in crisis to reach out for mental health support. If stress, anxiety, mood changes or substance use are starting to affect your daily life, relationships or overall well being, it may be time to seek help.

Even feeling "not like yourself" for a while is a valid reason to ask for support. Help is available, wherever and whenever you need it, you don't need to navigate it alone.

As we recognize the 100th anniversary of Black History Month, we honor the immense contributions, resilience and strength of Black and African American communities.

This month is also a time for reflection. For many Black individuals, mental health challenges have long been shaped by stigma, cultural narratives around strength and faith, and unequal access to care. These narratives were often born out of resilience, but they have also made it harder to talk openly about mental health and ask for support.

"But despite all of our achievements, stigma remains a recurring theme. Shame, guilt, and reluctance to seek help often accompany mental health challenges" says Victor Armstrong, MSW, the Vice President for Health Equity and Engagement at The American Foundation for Su***de Prevention.

Victor discussed how his upbringing shaped his understanding of mental health struggles from such an early age. Read the full blog here: https://afsp.org/story/taking-a-closer-walk-with-stigma-and-mental-health-during-black-history-month
