My elderly neighbor died by suicide. I was the first person to arrive and called 911. That day is engrained in my memory. Yet, it led me to a career working in addiction and mental health treatment. I posted this here because there is still stigma when it comes to suicide and mental health and I want to raise awareness that help is available.

My daughter plays in Southside’s band and lost a close friend to suicide a coupe of weeks ago. He played the tuba and the band played tribute to him after the game with a song and it was very touching yet so sad. My heart breaks for those struggling. Thanks for being a part of that 77.
