MENTAL HEALTH: Mental health challenges ripple into families, friendships, and workplaces, because when someone you love is struggling with their mental health, you carry it too.

Buckelew’s programs are designed with this entire social network in mind. We offer support to connect to services, su***de survivor groups, and substance use resources that help loved ones understand, cope, and heal.

Our work extends beyond crisis stabilization. True recovery means reclaiming the pieces that make life worth living: connection, purpose, creativity, dignity. That’s why we offer personal enrichment programs designed to restore the whole person: life skills, fitness, art, social connection and community belonging.

As comes to a close, we want to encourage you to take care of your mental health and if you can, donate to organizations that help those in need of mental healthcare. 🔗 buckelew.org/Act4Impact

Have you tried affirmations? Studies found that affirmations can improve people’s overall well-being, help them feel better about themselves and reduce anxiety. We’re joining Mental Health America’s movement and sharing weekly affirmations to help you reinforce what matters to you and who you want to be.

❤️ if you want to see more affirmations!

We were moved by the recent Martin Short interview in which he shared his thoughts on the loss of his daughter to mental illness and the death of his wife in 2010.

If you, or someone you care about, is struggling with mental illness you are not alone. Resources such as the 988 su***de and crisis lifeline are available nationally. Locally, Buckelew Programs and our partners are here to help. Visit buckelew.org/services/counseling/

Content warning: This story discusses su***de.

Months after Martin Short’s eldest child Katherine Short died by su***de at the age of 42, he shared the loss’ heartbreaking connection to the death of his wife Nancy Dolman, who died of ovarian cancer in 2010.

Details in the comments below.
