During this month, week and day, individuals and organizations will be drawing attention to the problem of suicide and advocating the prevention of this tragedy. It’s a time to share resources and stories and promote suicide prevention awareness. All around the nation, suicide prevention organizations will conduct prevention and awareness events. In 2021, suicide was among the top 9 leading causes of death for people ages 10-64. Suicide was the second leading cause of death for people ages 10-14 and 20-34. Suicide is a national health crisis. Suicidal thoughts, much like mental health conditions, can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, socioeconomic status, or background. Suicide is sometimes the result of a mental health condition. Suicidal thoughts, although common, should not be considered normal and often indicate more serious issues. Consider making a tax-deductible donation to support the Idaho Crisis & Suicide Hotline. Even $5 or $10 would make a difference and could help save lives! To donate, visit www.idahocrisis.org/donate. If you or a loved one need to talk, call ICSH now.

Saturday, September 17, 2022 While physician suicide was a crisis long before COVID-19, the demands of the pandemic have created a sense of urgency to better support physicians’ mental health and well-being. 6 in 10 physicians have feelings of anger, tearfulness, or anxiety. About one-third feel hopeless. Nearly half of doctors say they’ve withdrawn from family, friends, and co-workers. These feelings may lead to depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder when left untreated. All of that can lead to suicidal thoughts for physicians. Doctors have one of the highest suicide rates of any profession. National Physician Suicide Awareness Day is a reminder and call to action. Every day we can make time to talk – and to act – so physicians’ struggles don’t become mental health emergencies. We can help prevent physician suicide by learning the signs, starting the conversations, understanding the underlying barriers, and sharing the resources to help those in distress seek mental health care. Physician Support Line is a national, free, and confidential support line service of 600+ volunteer psychiatrists to provide peer support for physician colleagues and American medical students. Call 1-888-409-0141 or visit www.physiciansupportline.com. The hotline is open 8:00 AM to 1:00 AM every day; no appointment is necessary. For an abundance of resources to share with colleagues or have for yourself, please visit www.npsaday.org for dedicated NPSA Day content and resources.  Break the Silence 5K Walk/Run
