Suicide Prevention

The month of September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. In honor of such join myself and others as information will be shared to raise awareness on the stigmatized and often taboo topic. Today with all that is going on in the world suicide attempts are on the rise. Information, education and resources can be helpful with shifting the public's perception as it relates to suicide as well as suicide attempts. It is important that one know the warning signs and risk factors of suicide. Suicide is the second leading cause of death among young adults. It is also preventable. If you or someone you know need someone to talk to call National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800 273 TALK (8255) or call 911 immediately.

To join in on the conversation call 516 387-1914.This is a topic that is worth discussing. Let's save lives including yours. Hosted by Jeanette Abney LMFT.
