Something to look out for when concerned that a person may be suicidal is a change in behavior or the presence of entirely new behaviors. These signs are of sharpest concern if the new or changed behavior is related to a painful event, loss, or change. Most people who take their lives exhibit one or more warning signs, either through what they say or what they do. Pay attention and listen.

June is PTSD Awareness Month.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health problem. PTSD can only develop after you go through or see a life-threatening event. It's normal to have stress reactions to these types of events, and most people start to feel better after a few weeks. If symptoms last longer than a month and are causing problems in your life, it could be PTSD. Learn about PTSD symptoms and treatments to help you recover.

Studies have found that taking a walk through nature produces measurable benefits for your mental health and may even reduce the risk of depression. The study, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, found that participants who walked for 90 minutes in a natural area showed decreased activity in the region of the brain associated with depression when compared to people who walked in a high-traffic urban setting.

Derek Moore, Thriving Mind’s peer services manag

Derek Moore, Thriving Mind’s peer services manager, attended the Recovery Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C., from June 8-11, 2025. As the premier gathering for recovery advocates, leaders, and organizations, the summit provided a valuable platform for networking, learning, and taking action to strengthen the recovery movement.

The event culminated in “Hill Day”, where attendees engaged directly with lawmakers on Capitol Hill to advocate for continued funding for Recovery Support. Derek was actively involved in these efforts, standing alongside staff from Fellowship Recovery Community Organization in Broward County to champion the cause.

Derek was also pictured with the U.S. senator from Pennsylvania John Fetterman, underscoring the importance of legislative partnerships in supporting recovery services.

The summit was a powerful experience that celebrated the resilience and dedication of the Recovery Community, reinforcing the collective commitment to advancing recovery initiatives nationwide.

Arianna Stone knows first-hand the powerful impact

Arianna Stone knows first-hand the powerful impact therapy can have on mental health.

From an early age, she felt a calling to work with young people. Her professional journey reflects that commitment, from her time as a preschool teacher to serving as a registered behavior technician, then a mental health specialist on an inpatient unit for children and adolescents. Today, she works as a certified recovery peer specialist at Jackson Community Mental Health Center, continuing her mission to support youth.

“I like to help people because I wish I had had the help when I was their age,” she said.

After experiencing a difficult breakup, Stone sought help through behavioral health services. It was then she was diagnosed with major depressive disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder.

“I was adamant about learning what was going on with me,” said Stone, 25, of Sunrise. That determination led her to pursue higher education. She earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology and is currently completing her master’s in clinical mental health counseling at Nova Southeastern University, with graduation expected later this year.

Originally from Jamaica, Stone moved to South Florida around age 8. She recalls struggling with anxiety and depressive episodes as a teenager but feeling unable to seek help due to cultural stigma.

“I wish I had time to process my emotions, have a shoulder to lean on, just a person who would listen and understand,” Stone said.

Today, Stone channels her experiences into advocacy and empowerment. She authored Serene Reflections Wellness Journal, a guided journal that encourages mindfulness, gratitude, and goal setting.

“Teenagers need something to work toward, a goal,” she said. “That sense of purpose can help ground them.”

When she is not working, Stone enjoys attending church, where she is an active volunteer, as well as reading, bike riding and the occasional relaxing “spa day.”

As she prepares to finish her degree, Stone reflects on how her personal experiences have shaped her professional identity.

“Having personal experience makes you so much more relatable, not just as a mentor and friend, but also a professional,” she said.
