September is National Suicide Prevention and Awareness Month

Hello, Health Talks Community! This is Shiv, founder of The Health Talks. September is National Suicide Prevention & Awareness Month. Today, I participated in the ONE Step to Save a Life Walk hosted by Burrell Behavioral Health in Springfield, MO. I got the chance to chalk the downtown square with many positive, inspiring messages. Thank you to the Springfield community and Burrell Behavioral Health for their support in raising awareness for this cause. 


Do not give up. Life is wonderful and has many things to offer. No matter how dark things may seem, there will always be light at the end of the tunnel. You do not have to go through this alone. Call 988, the national crisis hotline, for 24/7 support and guidance.
