The Paradox of Presence: Reflections on Support in Times of Mental Health Crisis 🤔💔 In our fast-paced world, it's easy to share a mental health meme or post a supportive comment online. But when someone is in the throes of a mental health crisis, often hospitalized or in ER, we find a conspicuous absence of this virtual support in the real world. Why is it that we witness larger gatherings at funerals, including those of attempted suicide survivors, than beside hospital beds? This phenomenon raises crucial questions about our approach to mental health support. Are we more comfortable dealing with the idea of mental health rather than its reality? It's time to shift from passive online solidarity to active, real-life support. Let's not wait for a tragic outcome to show we care. A hospital visit, a listening ear, or a helping hand can make a profound difference. It's about being there when it truly counts. 🙏 #MentalHealthAwareness #BeThere #RealSupport #EndTheStigma

🧠 Sharing Our Mental Health Journeys 🧠 By sharing our experiences – the good, the bad, and the ugly – we can let down our walls and create safe spaces for open conversations. Let’s foster understanding and support during #SuicidePreventionMonth. Thoughts of suicide can be scary, but by checking in with ourselves, family, and friends, we can help prevent devastating outcomes. 📊 In 2020 alone, nearly 46,000 lives were lost to suicide (CDC & NIMH). Early signs may be subtle, like “I wish I wasn’t here,” but they can escalate. Warning Signs to Watch For: Increased alcohol or drug use Aggressive behavior Withdrawal from loved ones Dramatic mood swings Impulsive or reckless actions 🚨 Emergency Signs: Collecting pills or buying a weapon Giving away possessions Tying up loose ends Saying goodbye to friends and family If you or someone you love is in crisis, seek immediate help from a healthcare provider or call/text 988 to connect with the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. 📞 Contact Us: (716) 877-6763 🌐 Visit Our Website: envisionwellnesswny.com #MentalHealthMatters #AgingWell #EnvisionWellness #HealthyAging
