Today is World Semicolon Day! It's a day to raise awareness for mental health, su***de prevention, and addiction recovery. Using the symbol ";", it signifies that a story (or life) continues rather than ends, encouraging strength for those struggling with mental health issues.
People get tattoos, temporary or permanent, may wear shirts, create signs or various other methods to spread awareness and remind themselves and others that there is more to their story!
If you or a loved one is struggling and need someone to speak to you can call 988 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and find someone who can help.
Special thanks to Constance from River Raisin Clubhouse for this post idea!
