This is Jennifer. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health issues, here are some resources that may help. Please don’t wait. I know it’s scary. I know it’s hard. I know it’s painful. But I also know it’s worth it. I really do know.

For ideas on how to talk to your parents. (Listen–I am no expert; just ask my daughter. The truth is, I’ve messed up a LOT as a parent. Please remember that parents don’t know what they’re doing either. Just don’t quit trying to talk.)

Do you know of any other good help resources for teenagers? I’d love to know about them and share them here. Lets help each other help each other.
