Faith and Audrey walked for su***de awareness at the Out of the Darkness event in Belleville this morning!

Did you know…

That su***de is the 10th leading cause of death in the U.S.?

Su***de deaths are 4x higher for males compared to females.

Fi****ms continue to be the most common method of su***de. In fact, the fi***rm su***de rate was at an all time high in 2024.

If you or someone you love is struggling, please don’t hesitate to reach out for help. The clinicians at Untangled Minds are here to listen and support you in whatever ways we can.

If you are in immediate crisis, please call or text 988 or text TALK to 741-741

For additional resources, such as how to talk to someone you’re worried is at risk, how to get involved in su***de prevention and awareness, or anything else involving su***de, check out https://afsp.org/su***de-prevention-resources/

Feeling down after a hard season is normal. When you’re feeling stuck, you don't have to handle it alone.

October 8th is National Depression Screening Day, a good reminder to check in with yourself or someone you care about. If sadness, emptiness, or loss of interest has lasted two weeks or more and is getting in the way of daily life, it's worth taking a closer look.

A free, private screening can be a first step: https://screening.mhanational.org/screening-tools/depression/

A screening isn't a diagnosis, but it can help you start the conversation with a professional. Depression is common and treatable!

In crisis? Call or text 988 (U.S. Su***de & Crisis Lifeline)

September is Su***de Awareness Month

Su***de is a difficult topic to discuss, but necessary, as it touches the lives of many people. One of the biggest ways we can make change surrounding su***de and its impact is simply to talk about it.

A common myth is the idea that talking about su***de makes someone more likely to follow through. In fact, in research, the opposite has been shown to be true. Talking openly and asking difficult questions if you're worried about someone can make them feel seen and cared for. It allows you to really find out what is going on and how to help the person you love.

To learn more about su***de awareness and how to help someone you love, check out the slides below.

Sometimes we’re harder on our past selves because we know how the story ended.

Hindsight bias can make us feel like we “should have known,” when we really couldn’t have known everything at the time. It’s a common phenomenon, but especially prevalent with those who have experienced trauma.

For example, trying to apply information you learned as an adult to something that happened when you were a child. It might feel easy to say now, “Oh, I should have done x, y, z instead, and that bad thing wouldn’t have happened!” But there is no guarantee of that in many situations, and it doesn’t change the fact that you didn’t know that information at the time as a child.

We can’t rewrite the past, but we can learn to process and manage our thoughts and feelings related to it now.

Learn from the past, but give yourself grace!
