Overwhelm and Suicidality
SUICIDE & CRISIS LIFELINE: TEXT OR CALL 988
If you have been diagnosed with a brain chemistry disease such as Generalized Anxiety, Major Depression or other disorder, you are not alone. Consider thinking of the diagnosis not as a label, but as an answer. Having an answer to the question, “Why do I feel this way?” opens the door to evidence-based solutions, support and research-proven paths toward healing. Join me as we destigmatize brain chemistry disorders and explore the many tools that science and self-care have to offer.
If you or a loved one lives with suicidality:
· Request a trusted person visit regularly for a wellness check if you live with suicidal ideation. You can also ask on behalf of someone else if you are concerned about their wellbeing
· Reach out to trusted allies (family, friends, pastor/spiritual teacher, mental health agencies, support groups) and encourage struggling loved ones to do so
· Discuss and create a Safety Plan for yourself or with someone at risk (How can I tell if I’m slipping into depression? What can I do to cope? When should I reach out for help? Who can I reach out to safely?)
· Know that there are others who will listen when you are in need! You can also let friends or family know you are there to listen if they are feeling isolated or alone, too.
If you or a loved one are in crisis, text or call 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline 24/7 for support, call 911, or go to the nearest emergency room—either for you or a loved one at any time. Do be aware that 988 can and will send police to your location if they deem it necessary for the caller’s safety, which may result in involuntary treatment or hospitalization for the caller’s protection.
