Making someone feel guilty or calling them selfish, for experiencing suicidal thoughts, is not going to help them. Instead, it will most likely prevent that person from ever reaching out to you for help again because they will feel judged. Start by just listening. #StopSuicide

I would not presume to tell you what you “should” do with your pain. I wont’t tell you “it’s not so bad”, or “just get over it”. I won’t tell you “others have been through worse” or “here’s what I would do”. I will simply tell you, I’m sorry you’re hurting. You are not alone. #StopSuicide

Let me tell you something about a person named Dionne. We will always find a way to have fun. I am so blessed to be named after for one and only @dionnewarwick

Virginia, if you haven’t done it already, make a plan to vote YES on the redistricting referendum. You can vote early by April 18 or on Election Day, April 21. Find your polling place at IWillVote.com/VA.

If you are struggling today, as if all you can feel is darkness and emotional pain, remember that your pain is not permanent, and it doesn’t mean you’re not meant to be here. You are meant to be here. You matter, your life matters, and you are not alone. Please stay. #StopSuicide

After losing his older brother Jason to suicide, Tom struggled to answer the question “Do you have any siblings?” Years later, Tom is finally comfortable with answering that question with “I had a brother.” Read: afsp.org/story/i-had-a-… #NationalSiblingsDay

As someone who does not speak Spanish, I thought the #SuperBowl halftime show was amazing! It was a master class in creativity, unity, and positive self-identity. I didn’t understand the words, but I was able to follow the story and celebrate the Hispanic culture. Well done Bad Bunny! #Unity

There is no replacement for human connection. And it’s key to recovery. While there is value in taking medication to treat mental health conditions, medication can’t create connection or meaning. That only comes from being with other humans. We all need each other. We all need hope. #StopSuicide

Black mental health matters. With culturally relevant mental health resources we can fight suicide in marginalized communities and foster a better understanding of Black mental health. Artwork by Lo Harris #BlackHistoryMonth
