How does seasonal change affect your mood?
"If you notice that your mood changes drastically with the seasons, keep an eye on your diet, try to exercise, and avoid the temptation to stay in and instead, go out and socialise.

Every employee — from teachers to bus drivers — has to have mandatory suicide prevention training every year. Students receive a similar training, beginning in the sixth grade and a mental health "resiliency" curriculum begins even earlier, in grade school. What's going on in Grand Junction represents a broader shift in public health thinking. The idea is that when you tackle a seemingly insurmountable problem like suicide, you start "upstream," focusing at its earliest roots, at a time that may be years before someone gets to the point of a crisis. In this case, the strategy is to zero in on the mental health and well-being of every kid, and for that matter everyone in the entire community."
Every employee — from...
"While October is a time for trick-or-treats, it is also Depression Awareness Month. Contribute to mental health awareness instead of stigma by choosing a costume wisely. Mental illness should viewed like any other illness and treated with dignity, not as a joke."
