Prioritize Your Mental Health

A person’s mental health depends on many factors like trauma, use of drugs and alcohol, and the stresses of everyday life. If you think you may be struggling, you aren’t alone! 

1 in 5 people will experience a mental health condition in their lifetime. There are different types of mental illnesses, and they don’t look the same person to person. It’s important to speak with your provider if you’re struggling.  

Call the 988 Lifeline if you or a loved one have thoughts of self-harm or suicide.
