“Reach out to talk to somebody and don't hold it in for years and years and not get the help that you need. It's very important that you walk alongside grief, walk alongside trauma, and not carry it on your shoulders. Move it. Put it beside you. It's time.” September is #NationalSuicidePreventionMonth. We are once again sharing 30 powerful stories of resilience in the face of mental health or suicide-related challenges for every day of September. This story is from Jessie Jo Van Bockel, who lost two male family members to suicide when she was young. She has also had her own trauma in her life, including the recent death of her father. She encourages people to help one another and listen to one another to face the burdens we all carry. Read Jessie's story and see more stories from the #30Days30Stories project at the link in our bio.
