In 2024, suicide-related deaths were four times higher among males than females.

This #MensHealthMonth, let’s remember that seeking help is a sign of strength. By supporting one another, fighting suicide, and challenging stigma, we can build a future where no one suffers alone.

There is no "right way” to grieve. What matters is knowing you don’t have to move through it alone. 💙

Today is a great day to remind someone they are not alone.

Sometimes the smallest gesture makes the biggest difference. A quick text, a call, or a simple “thinking of you” can mean more than you know.

Connection matters. You matter. Who will you check in with today? 💛

Mid-week reminder: All your feelings are valid, including those that are difficult or unexpected. Allow yourself to feel whatever comes. 🫶

[AFSP Nebraska @AFSPNebraska]

Separating fact from fiction is a powerful first step in fighting stigma. The more we know, the better we can support ourselves and each other. 💙

On #MemorialDay, we honor and remember those who gave their lives in service. 💙

As we reflect, we also recognize the families, friends, fellow service members, and communities who carry their memory. If someone in your life is grieving the loss of a service member, consider reaching out to let them know you’re thinking of them.

These simple gestures can reinforce connection and support through moments of remembrance, even from a distance.

A trip to the barbershop is an opportunity to connect.

Jimmy Evans created the Barbershop Therapy Foundation, which trains barbers in marginalized communities to advocate for mental health and connect clients with resources.
