“How can I tell if my teenager is depressed?” “Is my teen just moody, or is it something worse?” “I feel helpless, what do I do?” “How can I find help?” – In modern society, mental health is unfortunately a pressing issue. Suicide is the leading cause of death in teenagers, but it can all be prevented.
Today, Sophia Mills sits down with Elliot Kallen, President and Co-Founder of A Brighter Day, who tells his story of transforming his own grief into an invigorating mission to save countless lives by supporting teens who suffer from depression and suicidal thoughts. Recognizing warnings and signs is the crucial first step to take, but there is so much more, including breaking down communication barriers, and supporting your teen through it all. Elliot also discusses social media and its own negative impacts on mental health, despite society’s reliance on it, and how we should navigate it to ensure safety and hinder its negative effects. Together, we can work to bring down suicide rates and increase mental health, and the first step that might just be tuning in to this episode of healing hearts.
So press play, learn how to support your teens to cultivate positivity and mental fortitude, and discover resources and tools provided by A Brighter Day that take necessary steps towards ending mental health issues. Let’s save lives! This is Part 1, Part 2 is out now! Be sure to tune in to get the full story and all the wonderful information shared!
