We have 8 minutes, and all of the support and friendship you need. ? “I?have?a?dear friend going through?a?very hard time and I wanted to be sympathetic but I was really pissed off she didn’t call me. Like, I’m here, I love you, I support you, you’re always there for me, why wouldn’t you let me be there for you? Like how selfish are you? She said I did, I reached out a number of times. Like the text, “Want to come over?” I’m like how the hell do I know that’s a cry for help versus every other time … she read an article that says when somebody’s struggling, all they need is 8 minutes of help or support from a friend to get them back on track. So we came up with a code – Do you have 8 minutes? It means I need you. Anybody can step out of a meeting for 8 minutes … Never underestimate the power of reaching out when?you’re struggling.?Just 8 minutes can get you back?on?track.” -?Simon Sinek May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a prevalent and ongoing issue within Public Safety; Where recently there have been more documented suicides than on duty deaths per year.
