World Mental Health Day

World Mental Health Day

I marked this date on the calendar a year ago in an effort to reflect on overcoming some personal dark times and open up a discussion on what I’ve seen since. 

Over the last 4 years, I’ve witnessed, personally, a spike in depression and anxiety case in employees and friends going through severe dark times.  And these are some incredible, kind, quality people! 

And then came COVID-19 pandemic! (**Not to mention the death of George Floyd on Memorial Day, the protests and unrestful division to follow OR the fact that we are heading into the most tumultuous general election of most of our life times!)

Listen, I’m going to keep this short and not pretend I know the statistics or solutions are. (Check out Mental Health America and Uncrushed.org content)

It’s all so intense. Plain and simple, yes, we are in a mental health crisis.

Just please be kind to everyone and in our line of #AKAWay ops… let’s keep the kids safe, innocent and ACTIVE!

Love you all, CS
