Raising Awareness #DSIS

There have been some great prompts lately, and this has given me the impetus to start raising funds for different non-profit organizations. This will be my second, the last one was on Depression and here was my post on the payout, sent to the Suicide Hotline.

This initiative for DON'T Suffer In Silence (#DSIS) is for those that are suffering from Mental Illness, here is the founder, Marcus Tisson's story about the loss of his mother and father. Both had suffered many years with mental illness.

Tisson started this group to bring mental health awareness to all and in support of this prompt given by @freewrite and Tisson I will donate any proceeds from this post to his organization. For me, to see anyone suffer for a prolong period breaks my heart and to know that there are many out there suffering in silence urges to me to help.

It is with human understanding and reaching out to others that we can possibly make a difference and if anything share information so others know they are not alone. The statistic on mental health is that at least one in four people will be affected by a mental health disorder or neurological disorder in their lifetime. We all wish, hope, or pray it will not be us but the sad reality is that the odds are not in our favor.

For further information on #DSIS, reach out to the team here, I've sent a correspondence asking for their donation link. Hopefully, they will get it to me by post payout.

Greetings,
Thank you for stopping by to read my blog. I’m a First Nation member of the Hopi & Apache Native American tribes, Medicine woman in-training, first time blogger since November 2017, (right here on Steemit), paralegal, researcher, and writer based in the Mountains of Colorado, USA. I work closely with fellow planktons and minnows in a few groups by helping them adjust to Steemit and curate quality content. I’m especially interested in finding others who love natural medicine originating from ancient practices, gold and silver, energy work, and the spirit world. Additionally, I'm the creator of #MedicineCardMonday, so if you are interested in receiving a Native American blessing stop by my blog every Monday, or just say hello!
See you soon, @eaglespirit
