988! In this episode, Sean & Cathy talk about the ground-breaking "go-live" of 988!!! This is an incredible resource for anyone struggling with mental health issues. Stick around, because, at the end of this episode, they'll also talk about their little "getaway" for about 2 days for their 4th wedding anniversary (spoiler: it was fantastic, peaceful & relaxing...)
Here's a line from the CDC's website describing what 988 is:
“988” is the three-digit, nationwide phone number to connect directly to the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. By calling or texting 988, you’ll connect with mental health professionals with the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, formerly known as the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. Veterans can press “1” after dialing 988 to connect directly to the Veterans Crisis Lifeline which serves our nation’s Veterans, service members, National Guard and Reserve members, and those who support them. For texts, Veterans should continue to text the Veterans Crisis Lifeline shortcode: 838255.
