RESOURCES
There are many great resources out there for those who struggle with mental illness or suicidal thoughts. My book, Harnessing Darkness: Expressing Mental Illness Through Poetry can sometimes be a challenging read due to the subject matter. That’s why I included various websites in the back of my book to help those who struggle with mental illness or suicidal ideations. I am not a medical doctor and cannot provide medical advice. If you or a loved one are struggling, please be sure to visit any of these sites:
National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)
American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP)
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)
