Sometimes, what we see as addiction is only the visible part of a much deeper pain. 💚

Today, the Mubatirapamwe team joined Capitalk 100.4FM for another thought-provoking discussion on Su***de . “When Addiction and Suicidal co-exist: Should We Treat The Addiction First or We Should Address The Pain Driving The Suicidal Thoughts?

It was a very powerful, eye-opening and emotional discussion, reminding us that behind addiction and suicidal thoughts, there may be unresolved trauma, loss, hopelessness, emotional pain, or other struggles that need to be understood and addressed.

Recovery is not only about treating the addiction. It is also about listening to the person, understanding their pain, and addressing what lies beneath the behaviour.

Because true recovery begins when we stop asking only, “What is wrong with you?” and start asking, “What happened to you, and how can we help?” 💚

💭 What do you think?
Are we sometimes treating the addiction while missing the pain underneath it?

“Sometimes, recovery needs more than a routine—it needs a change of environment, meaningful connections and moments that remind us that life in recovery can still be joyful.” 🌱❤️‍🩹

Over the weekend, our recovering residents came together at the Drop-In Centre for a Therapeutic recreational Camp, creating an opportunity to strengthen relationships, build trust and experience the recovery journey in a different environment.

The camp was filled with laughter, teamwork and unforgettable memories, with activities including Zumba dance 💃🏾, a bonfire 🔥, movie night🎬, treasure hunts 🗺️, eating competitions 🍽️ and many other fun activities.

For our recovering residents, the camp was more than just entertainment. It provided a much-needed opportunity to step away from the usual rehabilitation routine, interact with staff, build positive relationships with peers and experience healthy ways of having fun without relying on substances.

These moments are important because recovery is not simply about stopping drug and substance use; it is about rebuilding relationships, developing healthy coping mechanisms, rediscovering joy and learning to enjoy life in healthier ways.

At Mubatirapamwe Sober living space, we believe that every positive connection, every shared laugh and every healthy memory can become part of the foundation for a stronger recovery. Recovery is a journey—and no one should have to walk it alone. 💚🌱

💜 Changing the Narrative. Choosing Hope. Building Support.

Today, 10 September 2026, we join the world in commemorating World Su***de Prevention Day.

This day reminds us of the importance of breaking the silence around mental health and creating safe spaces where people feel heard, supported and cared for. Sometimes, a simple conversation, a listening ear, or showing someone that they are not alone can make a meaningful difference.

As Mubatirapamwe, we stand with the call to change the narrative of su***de. We are committed to promoting mental health awareness, psychosocial support, compassion and community care.

Let us move from silence and stigma towards conversation, support and hope

Sometimes, the most important thing we can do is simply listen.💜

It’s World Su***de Prevention Month—a time to raise awareness, break the silence and remind one another that no one should have to face their struggles alone.

Su***de is a serious public health concern. Mental health challenges , drug and substance use are some of the risk factors associated with suicidal thoughts and behaviours. Some people may turn to drugs and substances as a way of coping with stress, emotional pain or difficult experiences. However, drug and substance use can sometimes worsen mental health challenges and increase vulnerability to suicidal thoughts and behaviours.

This is why creating awareness, breaking the silence and having open conversations about mental health,drug and substance use matters.

As individuals, families and communities, we can create safe spaces where people feel comfortable speaking about what they are going through without fear of judgement, shame or rejection.

Sometimes, people may not need us to have all the answers. They simply need someone willing to listen.

🤝 Let’s check on our loved ones.
💚 Let’s ask, **“Are you really okay?”**
👂 Let’s listen without judging.
🫂 Let’s offer support and encourage professional help when it is needed.

Prevention is not only about responding when someone is already in crisis. It is also about building communities where people feel **seen, heard, valued and supported.**

💭 **What can we do differently in our homes, schools, workplaces and communities to make it easier for someone to say, “I’m not okay”?**

Let’s start the conversation. **Breaking the silence starts with creating a space where people know they can speak, be heard and find support.** 💚

When a child starts using drugs, who is responsible for noticing, intervening and helping them?

Yesterday, Mubatirapamwe team joined Host Folake the Sage on Capitalk 100.4FM for a thought-provoking conversation on drug and substance use among students and the role schools play in protecting them .

Folake raised an important question: “What are you doing with children who are using drugs and substances ? And what is the responsibility of the schools ?”

Schools are not only places where children learn Mathematics, Science and other academic subjects. They are also environments where children should receive guidance, protection, life skills and support.

As Tendai highlighted, safeguarding begins with preventing drugs and substances from entering schools, identifying students who may be at risk early, and ensuring that those who need help receive immediate support rather than simply punishment.

Not every student will openly admit to using drugs or substances, and some cases can be difficult to identify without proper knowledge and observation. This calls for stronger prevention strategies, better resources and continued education.

The conversation also raised another important question: What really happens when a child starts using drugs or substances at school?

Let’s discuss. 💭

Should schools focus only on discipline, or should they also play a bigger role in early identification, support and intervention?

🌱 Should searching learners’ bags be part of the fight against drug and substance use in schools?

Today, the Mubatirapamwe Team joined Capitalk 100.4 FM with host Folake for an important conversation on drug and substance use among School Children.🎙️🏫

The discussion explored the question of whether searching learners’ bags could help prevent drugs and substances from entering schools.

Different views were shared during the conversation, bringing attention to the challenges schools, teachers, parents, and learners face in addressing drug and substance use.

From the use of sniffer dogs to the role of social work in protecting children’s wellbeing, the conversation raised important questions about the best approaches to creating safer school environments.

💬 But where should we draw the line between prevention, protection, privacy, and the wellbeing of the child?

What are your thoughts?

Caring for someone else should never mean forgetting to care for yourself. ❤️‍🩹

Last week, Mubatirapamwe facilitated another Caregivers Support Meeting in Glen Norah, creating a safe space for caregivers to learn, share their experiences and have meaningful conversations around mental health, and drug and substance use.

Aunt Kiri opened an important conversation on psychosis, highlighting that it can have different causes. While drug and substance use can sometimes induce psychosis, psychosis can also occur as part of certain mental health conditions. Understanding this difference is important because not every change in behaviour has the same cause, and responding with myths, fear or stigma can prevent someone from receiving the support they need.

The discussion also explored the negative effects of drug and substance use on brain development, particularly among young people. Drug and Substance use can interfere with areas of development linked to learning, decision-making, emotions and healthy development.

In our communities, experiences that are not easily understood can sometimes be explained through myths, fear or traditional beliefs. This is why awareness, open conversations and professional support matter. Understanding what someone may be experiencing allows us to respond with compassion rather than blame.

And to every caregiver: you are caring for someone, but you are still a person with needs, emotions and a life of your own. You don't have to carry everything alone.

💬 Speak. Share. Ask for help. Support one another.

Because sometimes, healing begins with something as simple as having a safe space where you can talk, be understood and know that you are not alone. 🫂💙

Sometimes changing the narrative on su***de starts with changing the way we talk about it. 🧡💛

As we commemorate World Su***de Prevention Month, let us remember that no one should have to face their struggles alone. Life is precious, and support, understanding and professional help can make a difference.

Are you or someone you know struggling with mental health issues, drug or substance use, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges? Know that you are not alone. Reaching out for help is not a sign of weakness.

Prevention begins with awareness, and awareness begins with the right conversations. 🏫🧡

Today Mubatirapamwe team facilitated a school outreach programme at Westridge High School🏫📚, engaging staff on mental health, drug and substance use, and prevention among learners.

The session focused on helping staff recognise early signs and risks associated with mentals health, drug and substance use, while equipping them with practical approaches to respond when a learner is found using substances. The discussion also covered appropriate referral pathways and the importance of responding with understanding and support rather than stigma.

Through the programme, Westridge High School staff were provided with information, practical guidance, and referral contacts to strengthen their ability to identify learners who may be at risk and connect them with appropriate professional support.

A school is more than a place of learning—it can be an important space for early identification, prevention, support and positive intervention. When teachers are equipped with the right knowledge, they can become an important part of a support system that helps young people make healthier choices and seek help when they need it.

Together, we can strengthen our schools, empower our communities, and create safer spaces where every learner has an opportunity to thrive.
