In honor of May being Mental Health Awareness Month, I had the privilege of organizing my last UNL Out of the Darkness Walk last month. It was an amazing event that inspired hope for me and so many other individuals. Plus we raised $14,800 dollars for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention! @afspnebraska Ever since I first started struggling with anxiety in middle school, I knew I was passionate about mental health awareness. Later, after experiencing depression and losing people to suicide, I knew it was my purpose to talk about mental health and suicide, stop the stigma, and raise awareness, so no one had to struggle alone. I am so grateful to have been a part of an organization that does just that. I have been so lucky to be a part of @outofthedarknessunl these past 4 years and privileged to be the walk chair these past 2. I am so grateful for my incredible team and want to give them and everyone who has supported me or this cause a huge thanks! I couldn’t have done it without you 🫶🏻 And remember, you are never alone. You are loved. You matter. #hopewalkshere You can still donate to the walk at afsp.org/unl (or the link in my bio) thank you <3
