September is National Suicide Awareness Month, a time to educate and re-educate ourselves on what we ALL can do to help keep our youth safe.
An important first step is familiarizing ourselves with the warning signs. Some early signs of depression that indicate someone may need help include:
Changes in mood—feelings of sadness and/or irritability
Losing interest in activities
Feelings of worthlessness
Warning signs of suicide that warrant imminent action (i.e., calling 911 and/or taking the individual to the nearest behavioral health hospital to receive a free level-of-care assessment) include:
Talking or writing about suicide or death (indirect as well as direct statements)
Isolating oneself from everyone and everything in one's life
Giving away prized possessions
Please visit our website to learn more about the warning signs as well as available resources if a youth in your life is in danger: elyssasmission.org
