October marks National Depression & Mental Health Screening Month, a pivotal time dedicated to raising awareness about mental health and encouraging proactive screenings. As we move into the fall, the focus shifts to both acknowledging the challenges faced by those struggling with depression and fostering a supportive environment where mental health can be openly discussed. This month serves as a powerful reminder that mental health is just as crucial as physical health and that early detection and intervention can significantly improve outcomes. By coming together as a community and leveraging the resources available, we can help reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues and promote a culture of understanding and support.
