May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and it is a good time to pause and think about how much mental health affects our daily lives. It shapes how we move through stress, how we care for ourselves, and how supported people feel when things are hard. Taking care of mental health matters, and getting help when it is needed should never feel like something people have to justify. This month, we encourage our community to keep making mental health easier to talk about and easier to seek support for.
If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available. Call or text 988 or chat 988lifeline.org.
