I've been in a mom's group for about 18 years now. One of the moms that I met in that group has a child that committed suicide yesterday. This child is the same age as my kiddo that was hospitalized twice at the beginning of 2022. Where my kid still struggles with depression, it just really hits me in a bad place, because it's been such a battle to keep my kid here.
My heart just hurts for her.

I cannot speak, but I can listen. I cannot be seen, but I can be heard. So as you stand upon a shore gazing at a beautiful sea, As you look upon a flower & admire its simplicity,
Remember me.
-Margaret Mead
He was a friend.He was the 1st one who spoke to me in a part of my job that was new. His smile was huge & his laughter was bigger.
Today is the celebration of his life, which was cut short by a pain not many could see.
I will remember you, SP.

The bullying did not stop at school. The messages started immediately after the attack at 11am on Feb 1st and continued into the next day around 3pm. On Feb 2nd at 10:46pm, she messaged her boyfriend upset about having to go to school the next day. Adriana Kuch was then found deceased at 5am on Feb 3rd. #adrianakuch #SuicideAwareness

Beth is one of my oldest friends, who I met in high school and later reconnected with on social media. She writes a really cool blog, often funny, sometimes very serious. You might enjoy reading it.

YOU have what it takes...you might not believe it like I didn't when I tried to kill myself and committed myself 2 years later, but NOW I KNOW BETTER.

#Anxiety advice from actual lived experience! As always, I passionately share from my heart as a man who attempted #suicide, lost a brother to suicide, committed myself a couple years later and was on NINE #mentalhealth meds over 3 years, trying to figure my "demons" out.
Please share with ANYONE going through a battle right now. You are NOT alone. β€πππ

Breat time at work, going over notes from my first #memoir Zoom call with my co-writer, editor and #literaryagent Robert Yehling.
This memoir is now my obsession - It MUST be for it to be as compelling and powerful as it can possibly be for every single person who reads it. I'll stop at nothing to bring a masterpiece to my beloved readers!

My sister loved to laugh.
There are a few people in my life who come to mind when I think about laughing. While I love & crave solitude, I love to laugh, & laughing IMHO is best when shared with another.
So when I am laughing, as in tears are coming down my face laughing, I can't help but think of my sister β€οΈ
Such good memories. I only wish we hadn't had to stop making them.
Life is too short, laugh often. #HerNameisDani #SuicideAwareness #semicolon #sisters #life #love

It's official....hard to believe, but this is FINALLY happening:
Next week I begin official collaboration with my editor, co-author and literary agent Robert Yehling on the book I originally set out to write back in 2006: My Memoir!
I hope to God you feel every bit of what I want to show you...

Handwriting is such a personal thing.The hand they write w/, the curve of letters, to the way they cross their t's & dot their i's.
I have many letters from my sister from when I went to college out of state.
16 yrs ago I began laminating anything written by her.
Time helps ease pain, but it also dulls certain memories. I'm afraid I'll forget things pertinent to her. Protecting her handwriting feels like a time portal I can visit @ a moment's notice #semicolon #SuicideAwareness #thoughts

Thought Iβd get involved in #ThrowBackThursday and share an old memory. This is from 2019, when I filmed a feature on #mentalhealth #SuicideAwareness #birdwatching and #natureconnection with Chris Packham for BBC Winterwatch. Itβs one of my proudest moments and (Iβm my opinion) a very important piece. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/iXOnw1oJmkU #birdtherapy
