Ever wonder how a #mentalhealth #crisis can shape one's #career for the better? Join us for our #MindDive podcast with Christine Yu Moutier, MD, chief medical officer at the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, who shares how her own personal struggles in medical school became a catalyst for her lifelong dedication to #suicideprevention. Dr. Moutier reveals the deeply personal experiences, including the loss of colleagues and students, that propelled her into a national role where she uses public health strategies to address this critical issue. Her story is a testament to the profound influence of lived experiences on one's career focus and advocacy. Give this episode a listen here: https://lnkd.in/gqYvZytW.

On this #VeteransDay, we express our gratitude to all who have served our nation and protected our freedoms. The cost to these individuals is often high, with many struggling with mental health issues. We salute their resilience, honor, and sacrifices. #service #militaryservice #militaryveterans #veteranhealth #veteranmentalhealth

There was a #celebrity in our midst this week! Walt Menninger, MD, one of our favorite people, stopped by for a #booksigning in honor of the publication of Like What You Do: The #Memoirs of Dr. Walt Menninger. As you can see, faculty and staff were eager to get their copies signed! One reviewer called the book "A compelling narrative of resilience, innovation, and compassion," while another said, "Anybody interested not just in the evolution of modern psychiatry, but also in the meaning of a life well lived, should read this book.” Get your copy here: https://amzn.to/3NZpgEX.
