Mental Health Mindfulness: Depression & Suicide
December is a month full of holiday cheer and spirit, but not for everyone. The stress of holidays can trigger depression for many people, so for this month’s Mental Health Mindfulness topic we will be raising awareness for Depression & Suicide.
The chemical imbalance and deep emotional pain can lead the brain to try and find ways to end the pain – this is when suicidal thinking begins.
