Sadly, I am a suicide loss survivor. My world shattered, along with my heart, the day my brother died He was my favorite human and my best friend. I miss him every single day. He struggled with his mental health and never found the right help. I wish I knew then, the things I know now. I wish I could have saved him. I strongly believe mental health education can save lives. I refuse to let his death be in vain. These days I strive to turn my pain into a purpose by advocating for suicide awareness and good mental health. Despite his struggles, my brother overflowed with so much love he was a light to everyone, who knew him and had a special way of brightening up the darkest days. Dedicating this blog to bringing hope and healing to others, in loving memory of my beautiful baby brother Drew. I believe lack of mental health education and the stigma of being labeled contributed to my brother's suicide. It's time to spread the word and start talking about mental health. Mental health education and real conversations can absolutely save lives!
