Eustress, Inc. Eustress, Inc. Eustress (pronounced yoo-stress), is stress that is deemed healthful or giving one the feeling of fulfillment. Eustress Inc.

is a nonprofit organization born out of the desire to bring awareness to the importance of acknowledging, improving and preserving mental health, a topic often marked by stigma and denial, particularly in the black community. strives to raise awareness around a taboo topic that many suffer alone with on a day-to-day basis. We all have good days and bad days, but some may need help to make sure that their good ones outweigh the bad. This starts with educating individuals about mental health and mental illness. encourages individuals to put aside fears, egos and pride to seek help when it is needed and break the stigma associated with mental illness and mental health.

September was Su***de Prevention Month, but the conversation shouldn’t end when the month does.

Sometimes the people we love are carrying more than we can see.

A quiet moment.
A simple question.
One honest sentence.

That can be the beginning of connection.

This short film is a reminder to check in on the people around you — not only when something seems wrong, but because some of the hardest struggles are the ones people hide best.

And if you’re the one struggling, you don’t have to have the perfect words.

You can simply start with:

“I’m not doing so well.”

At Eustress Inc., we believe those conversations matter.

**Sometimes staying starts with one honest sentence.**

We walked King Street on Saturday morning, and Bertie, along with surrounding counties, showed up.

Eleven years. That's how long the Let's Talk About It Mental Health Awareness Walk has been rolling through Windsor in collaboration with the Bertie County YMCA, and this year was no different.

Families, students, community members, coaches, first-timers, and people who have walked with us since year one. Some walked for somebody they lost. Some walked for themselves. All of them walked because they believe we deserve to talk about mental health out loud.

Thank you to our volunteers who had the route ready before the sun was fully up, to our sponsors who made it free for every walker, to vendors who added to the conversation of taking care of the whole person, and to the Bertie County YMCA for eleven years of standing next to us on this.

If you see yourself in these photos, tag yourself and tell us why you walked. Your reason might be the one somebody else needs to hear.

Let's keep talking, Bertie.

September is Su***de Prevention Month. But prevention starts with something we can do all year long: talk to each other.

Check in. Ask again. Listen without trying to fix everything. Take people seriously when they tell you they’re struggling.

You don’t need to have the perfect words. Sometimes you just need to make sure someone knows they don’t have to face it alone.

And if “I’m fine” doesn’t feel fine, ask again. 💚

If you or someone you know needs immediate support, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

Let’s keep talking about it.
