It's Okay To Not Be Okay
It is okay to not be okay. Speaking with each other about mental health and seeking support early can help us increase dialogue and reduce stigma. You are not alone.
If you are concerned about your mental health or a loved one, contact your health care provider or access a number of local resources.
If you are in crisis, contact the Mental Health Crisis Line (24 hours a day/7 days a week) at 1-866-996-0991.
