"Angie Read Doyal is the co-author of Marketing to Gen Z: The Rules for Reaching this Vast—And Very Different—Generation of Influencers, the author of Mental Health Hacks: 10 Easy Hacks to Help Manage Anxiety and Depression, and now her personal story Invisible Scars: Stroke Survival, Recovery, and the Unexpected Mental Health Fallout. Angie considered her life truly blissful. She had an adoring husband, three wonderful teenaged children, and a 25-year ambitious career as a public relations professional. She was active and healthy and about to embark on a mission to travel the world to share her passion and knowledge of marketing to Gen Z. But then life took a horrendous turn. Completely out of the blue, at the age of just 46, Angie had a right-side ischemic stroke that required emergency brain surgery to remove a blood clot. In the blink of an eye, Angie went from a successful career woman and doting mom to an empty shell, terrified for her future and angry at the injustices of her situation. Despite surgery going well, Angie was far from her previous levels of health and well-being. Anxiety and depression had taken over her life. She had lost her vibrant, energetic self, she couldn't work, and she had to depend on her friends and family. Dignity and independence had been replaced with fear and sorrow. Angie was desperate to get back to her normal self but each day, all she could feel was that her body and brain were betraying her, despite having successfully ‘graduated' from intense physical, speech and occupational rehabilitation. Realizing that things were spiraling out of control, Angie agreed to being admitted to an in-patient mental health facility—twice. It took years of dedication, self-discovery, and continuous professional support. Angie completed an Intensive Outpatient Program and learned about simple daily practices that would enable her to manage the symptoms of anxiety and depression. She went through talk therapy and required prescription medication. Her perseverance paid off. Not only was Angie able to return to her career, but she was also in a much better position to support her family, especially when her 22-year-old son had his own mental health crisis. Now, Angie is back, better and bolder! Enjoying the smaller things in life like time with her friends and family, running, weekends on the lake, and any chance to see the Kansas City Chiefs dominate their opponents. Her own experiences have taught Angie that there is still a huge stigma surrounding mental health and her new passion is to share her story, so nobody has to suffer alone." _ ABOUT – Angiereadbooks (scoutgus.com) --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Every year, about 1 in 5 expecting and new parents experience symptoms of depression and/or anxiety. While most new mothers suffer from mood swings within the first few weeks, some pregnant and postpartum parents have intense feelings of sadness, worry, anger, numbness, or self-doubt that persist for months. Unfortunately, services are seriously lacking for parents in the United States, particularly when it comes to postpartum mental health.  Anchor Perinatal Wellness provides unique and specialized mental health programming for pregnant and postpartum people, including a free, walk-in screening clinic, outpatient services and an intensive outpatient program to pregnant and postpartum adults who are struggling with a perinatal mood and anxiety disorder (PMAD).  Anchor was founded by three Latina women who recognized that they shared a passion for expanding mental health services for perinatal people and they opened their program in May of 2022. Today we are joined by two of the founders of Anchor Perinatal, Roxanne Rosenberg, a licensed mental health counselor and Veronica Kemeny, a licensed clinical social worker.  Last week, in part one of our conversation with the Anchor team we dove into a discussion of PMADs, lessons we can learn from other countries, and how PMAD's are showing up differently in minority populations. Today in part 2 of our conversation, we dive into what intensive outpatient services look like for those suffering from PMADs, and explore reproductive justice and the role it is playing in Anchor Perinatal's work. Our discussion today included: An exploration of intensive outpatient programs, how it's different, why it's rare in the US What a day in the life of an Intensive Outpatient Program looks like Reproductive Justice defined The first National Maternal Mental Health Task Force and Anchor's role in it Impact on LGBTQ+ communities of recent legislation Thank you to our sponsor: HER Circle Patreon Resources Mentioned in Episode: MAAME PSI International Anchor Perinatal Wellness Sister Song --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/herhealthcollective/support

Episode 427 – But a Symptom   Today we have Ian, he is 24, from Baltimore, MD and he has been alcohol free since December 26, 2022.   What are you doing for Memorial Day?  You should join Recovery Elevator in Atlanta! We have an event for Café RE members on Saturday and then Sunday night we have a conference style event that everyone is invited to attend. Information about the Sunday night event can be found here. Café RE members can get more information through the members website if they are interested in the weekend event.   Exact Nature: https://exactnature.com/RE20   [02:15] Thoughts from Paul:   If alcohol isn't the primary problem, and it's a symptom of something else, what does that mean, and what course of action do we take? None of us are able to correct the unrest in our lives when alcohol is present. That's why moderate drinking for the problematic drinker doesn't work either.   For Paul, after he ditched the booze, he recognized that his nervous system needed healing and found that nature was a great help with addressing that. Everyone is different and their sources of unrest that need addressing will be different but first, the alcohol needs to go and then the healing can begin. We get one life, and your addiction is about to springboard you towards your authentic self – if you are willing. You may be asking yourself “am I willing?”…If you are listening to this podcast, the answer is yes.   Better Help:  www.betterhelp.com/elevator - 10% off your first month. #sponsored   [10:47] Paul introduces Ian:   Ian took his last drink on Christmas Day of 2022. He lives in Baltimore and is a recent college grad. In his free time, he fosters senior dogs and plays music. He finds taking care of animals at the end of their lives to be very rewarding and helpful in his recovery.   Ian wasn't exposed to alcohol until he was in college. He was in his junior year when he started drinking and smoking pot. He had roommates that were drinking like he was at parties and on the weekends, but Ian was starting to be sneaky and would purchase his own alcohol separate from the alcohol that was present in the house and didn't want anyone to know how much he was actually drinking. The blackouts started becoming more and more frequent.   When he was 20, he started planning his entire days around drinking and smoking. Work and school became minor activities and drinking was priority. Throughout all of this Ian was still successful so he didn't see his drinking as a problem.   Early 2020 Ian experienced withdrawal for the first time and it scared him. He initially didn't realize what it was and was scared he was going to die. For the first time, he acknowledged his drinking had become an issue.   After several trips to the ER, he ended up speaking with a peer counselor who helped him get involved with an Intensive Outpatient Program. Ian was able to get sober for two months but was ashamed of what he was doing and ended up leaving. He relapsed and had a bad Christmas with his family. He has learned that it is more embarrassing to have a drinking problem than it is to work on getting sober.   Ian says being transparent with people was the game changer for him. Letting everyone know that he is sober helps him stay accountable.   Being a young person in sobriety can feel a little lonely Ian says. Our culture normalizes drinking in our twenties and it's hard to connect with others in recovery because most people are older. In spite of the feelings of missing out or “why me” thinking, Ian knows that this is the right choice for him.   Ian is looking forward to achieving newfound career goals, being a better dog dad and someday having a family. He is excited to fully find his confidence and be the best version of himself he can possibly be.   Cafe RE  Use the promo code OPPORTUNITY to waive the set-up fee.

Amy LeClair grew up as a Junior Olympic Gymnast. At 11 she had her first interaction with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder while on a trip with her class. Suddenly she was bombarded by intrusive thoughts that made her wonder if she would hurt them even though she had no desire to do so. She was able to find tools to help with her OCD until Amy went to college. As a Division 1 gymnast at San Jose State, she experienced extreme verbal and emotional abuse from her coaches and was sexually assaulted by her head trainer. The trauma from that was buried, but came out in the form of anxiety which she treated with copious amounts of Ativan, eventually becoming addicted while pregnant with her daughter. Amy experienced a severe depressive episode just before giving birth and delivered her child while hospitalized on a psych hold. Things had hit a complete bottom and she eventually sought help in the form of an Intensive Outpatient Program that led to an OCD recovery program that changed her life. After finally finding help that worked, she went on to participate in an FBI investigation of San Jose State and entered into litigation against the Cal State University system eventually reaching a settlement agreement this past July. Amy now publicly advocates for athlete safety while focusing on the adverse effects of verbal abuse and sexual assault on mental health.

The rehab center combines 12-step recovery strategies with individual and group therapy sessions to provide the ultimate recovery treatment program to clients. The West Hollywood center also offers detox allowing clients to cleanse their system before entering the program.  The Hills Treatment Center was founded in 2009 and has been overseen by Dr Howard C. Samuels. An expert in drug and alcohol addiction, Samuels is a licensed therapist with a clinical psychology doctorate. He founded the Hills Treatment Center to help others fight the dangers of addiction and co-occurring disorders. He currently serves as the rehab's CEO. Samuels had drug and alcohol issues of his own that made headlines in the 1960s and 1970s. Now, he uses the knowledge he has gained from fighting addiction to help others.  You will have a fully customized rehab program based on your needs at the Hills. The treatment center has worked with a number of high-profile celebrity clients over the years and continues to cater to wealthy individuals. Clients have entered the Hills Treatment Center's rehab program for a range of issues including drug and alcohol addiction, dual diagnosis, and eating disorders.

Difficult Conversations -Lessons I learned as an ICU Physician

Hello and welcome to Difficult Conversations -Lessons I Learned as an ICU Physician with Dr. Anthony Orsini. Today I have two great guests to talk about something that affects all of us: drug and alcohol addiction among healthcare providers such as doctors and nurses. We all know it exists, but it's something no one  ever wants to talk about.  Today, I have Steven Wolt, CEO and Co-Founder of Veritus, whose personal journey as an executive in corporate America with a substance use disorder and his story of recovery is the reason he created Veritus. I also have Dr. Michel Sucher, Chief Medical Advisor of Veritus, who has been practicing addiction medicine for over 30 years and regarded nationally as a pioneer and foremost industry expert in alcohol and drug monitoring and after care programs.  Veritus offers virtual substance abuse and trauma treatment programs exclusively for licensed medical professionals. Keep listening to hear more about the incredible things they are doing to help with this problem. As always, Dr. Orsini keeps his promise about two things, that you will feel inspired, and you will have learned valuable lessons to be a better and more compassionate communicator.Steven shares his journey with drug addiction, his recovery, and how he became the CEO of Veritus. Dr. Sucher explains how prevalent addiction is among physicians and nurses, and the recent spike in physician burnout, suicide, and depression due to COVID. We find out  why doctors and nurses start getting addicted to drugs.  Many doctors find it helps with their emotional pain.  We also  learn why the Veritus approach works and how they help people by supporting and encouraging them to get help early. Dr. Sucher educates  explains the laws that protect doctors from losing privileges. Steven tells us why he would not use the resources provided by his  employers when he was going through his addiction, and about the uphill battle that goes on right now with people that are suffering and needing treatment. Steven shares his advice on having that first conversation with someone after realizing you have a problem, being in denial, and saying, “Me too.” Dr. Sucher explains what he tells the people that think they are Superman and stresses how Veritus tries to get early recognition, early intervention, and early treatment to prevent consequences. Steven explains how Veritus does virtual treatments and the encouraging data that came out recently showing how it compares to in-person treatment, and Dr Sucher shares one other amazing finding about tele-health. Steven walks us through the process from making  the first call to Veritus saying you need help, and he explains the program they offer called the Intensive Outpatient Program.  If you enjoyed this podcast, please hit the subscribe button, and download all the previous episodes to find out more about what we do and how we teach communication. Host: Dr. Anthony OrsiniGuests:Steven WoltDr. Michel SucherFor More Information:The Orsini WayThe Orsini Way-FacebookThe Orsini Way-LinkedinThe Orsini Way-InstagramThe Orsini Way-TwitterIt’s All In The Delivery: Improving Healthcare Starting With A Single Conversation by Dr. Anthony OrsiniResources Mentioned:Veritus SolutionsVeritus Linkedin

Every coping skill is valid until it starts hurting you. If it's not affecting you negatively, then you're fine. But what if it is affecting you negatively? What if the same method you are using to cope with is the same factor hurting you and affecting you negatively? Erin Frame talks with Ren Caldwell, a Digital Marketing guru who is also Erin's Digital Marketing guru. They talk about alcohol addiction, coping mechanisms, and Ren's inspiring journey to becoming alcohol-free. Being Alcohol-Free [2:02] Ren has been alcohol free for 14 months, and she actually started her journey towards the end of 2018. [2:59] Back in the 90s, when Ren was still in high school, everybody in her peer hung out with partied almost every weekend and sometimes during the week. [3:30] Ren says that when you're young, partying hard is expected. It doesn't seem out of place necessarily though it may for others, but everyone you're seeing is doing it. You're more able to get over the hangovers or not get hangovers. And as you get older, it gets a little different. Changing the Habit [4:24] Ren decided that she should probably make a change because she lost a close friend and believes that alcohol had something to do with the health issues his friend ran into. [5:05] Ren needed to make some changes which she finds not easy to do. She contacted the health care system and entered a program called Intensive Outpatient Program. She says that there comes a time where we can party like rock stars, but we can't recover like them anymore. [5:58] When Ren first started going into rehab, she realized that she didn't have a life without alcohol. They told her that she has to cope in other ways. Mental Health in today's society [6:53] Mental health is much more accepted now. Therapists, in general, are talking about your problems, and being open is more acceptable now for the younger generation than it ever was. [7:38] Ren says that a regular theraphy that anyone can get even if your insurance doesn't provide you access to an Outpatient Treatment Group. It's called CBT which stands for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and DBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, a subset of CBT. [8:13] CBT and DBT is basically one-on-one talk therapy with a mental health psychologist When you're angry, confronted, or just feeling an emotion, you need to process it and think about it. Ren says that when we begin to live a life where alcohol is our coping skill, we don't even do that. We just skip what we feel about emotion. We're just going to drink because we don't want to think about it, which doesn't seem to help anything. Peace of Mind [26:45] Ren says that eventually, you feel comfortable with yourself in your own skin. She wouldn't have thought that she would ever feel that way. She always felt that she needed something. She realized that it's so nice to have peace of mind.

Tonight's special guest is Melody J Anderson, LCSW, from Los Angeles and New York City, a child abuse survivor with 28 years in private practice in Westwood and Manhattan. "I grew up in an alcoholic home," Melody reports. "My father suffered from many addictions, including gambling and alcoholism. Sadly, he never sought treatment and died at 55." She goes on, "My mother dealt with her depression from my father’s drinking by isolating and neglecting her role as a mother. My older sister and I were left to raise ourselves." Their grandmother rose to the occasion, and ".. gave us the peace to experience that we children were not truly alone in the world." Melody was beset with nightmares, believed she could not trust anyone, and made poor relationship choices. Her confusion has left her with life-long economic anxiety. Fortunately, she found help through Al-Anon and therapy. "Over a quarter of a century ago, I made the decision to pass on my experience, strength and hope to others who knew this pain, by returning to school and becoming a licensed therapist in addiction and trauma." Melody specializes in treating individuals, couples and families coping with addiction, trauma, life changes, mental illness and more. Among other things, she created and was the Coordinator of “The Intensive-Outpatient Program” and “Family & Friends Program” at Hazelden New York. She has facilitated groups for the dually-diagnosed in Los Angeles and is the Clinical Director at 'Friendly House', an all-women’s, in-patient treatment facility.

ABOUT REBECCA BOKAT:The seeds of Rebecca’s interest in fitness and nutrition were planted at an early age as she watched Jane Fonda aerobic tapes in the basement of her childhood home outside of Washington, DC. Rebecca often leafed through her mother’s many issues of Eating Well magazine, setting the stage for what would become a lifelong relationship with food. In the years following her childhood, Rebecca’s passion for fitness grew, and she started her career as an AFAA certified personal trainer. The majority of Rebecca’s clients sought her expertise to help them achieve weight loss goals, which served as further inspiration to learn more about the intricate relationship between nutrition, exercise, and body image. In response to culturally embedded messages about dieting and the pursuit of the thin “ideal,” Rebecca sought a deeper understanding of clinical nutrition and turned her attention to graduate school. In 2009, Rebecca earned a Master of Science degree in Nutrition from Boston University and completed her Dietetic Internship at Boston Medical Center.Rebecca has extensive experience treating eating disorders throughout all life stages across the continuum of care. As a clinical dietitian for inpatient services at Boston-area Walden Behavioral Care, Rebecca gained the invaluable experience that comes from treating patients at a multilevel eating disorder and psychiatric treatment facility. For the majority of her time at Walden, Rebecca was the adolescent dietitian, providing education to patients and families on the psychological and physiological impacts of eating disorder behaviors, symptom management, and reduction, and meal planning to normalize eating patterns and support medical and behavioral stabilization. Most recently, Rebecca served as the dietitian for both adolescent and adult clients in the Day Treatment Program and Intensive Outpatient Program at The Renfrew Center Boston and at Monte Nido Eating Disorder Center of Boston.Rebecca is an active member of multiple professional organizations and groups including the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the International Federation of Eating Disorder Dietitians, and Eating Disorder Registered Dietitians & Professionals. She is devoted to continuing her professional growth and development through participation in the Behavioral Health Nutrition (BHN) and Sports, Cardiovascular and Wellness Nutrition (SCAN) Dietetic Practice Groups. Rebecca also belongs to the Multi-Service Eating Disorders Association (MEDA) Preferred Treatment Provider Network.Rebecca currently offers individualized nutrition therapy to clients struggling with eating disorders and disordered eating from her private practice, NourishED RD, LLC, in Boston, MA. The combination of her lifelong passion for nutrition, fitness, and wellness is the foundation from which Rebecca supports her clients as they heal their relationship with food, movement, and their bodies. Rebecca leverages her enthusiasm, personal experience, and clinical expertise to offer hope and inspiration to her clients so they may lead fully recovered lives."Being recovered and free from the eating disorder allows you to live your life how you choose, not that you have control over life outcomes, but that you have an independent voice in making choices in the micro and macro life decisions that you come across.' - Rebecca BokatCONNECT WITH REBECCA BOKAT: • Visit NourishedRD online• Connect with NourishedRD on Facebook• Follow NourishedRD on Instagram• Read more from Rebecca on the NourishEd blogABOUT THE HOST:Karin Lewis, MA, LMFT, CEDS has been recovered from Anorexia Nervosa for over 20 years and has been specializing in the prevention and treatment of eating disorders since 2005.

Once a Week in the United StatesWe live in a society in which hearing about murders on school campuses 40 times this year is outrageous on one hand, and numbing on the other. Forty times just this year in the United States people – both kids and adults- went to their school campus to never return home. Those are numbers that are hard to comprehend. It is also campus shooting #142 just since December 2012 when the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School happened - that’s about 1 a week. Is this our new normal? Does it have to be so? That 142 does not take into account the numbers of shootings between 1999 when the first of the modern day campus massacres happened at Columbine. We, as a society can do things to stop this – Ill give a few insights as to that, but first I should put my knowledge of the subject in context for you.What My Team Learned Studying School ShootingsI spent 3 years working as part of a development team of what we hoped to become a School Violence Prevention Institute here in San Diego. I became the historian of the project. I followed the stories and looked for what we knew of the shooters before and after they acted, the circumstances of the shooting and what the fallout was afterwards in the communities. For as much as there have been shootings on school campuses prior to Columbine, that tragedy in 1999 formed the new M.O. of what has continued since, so we studied all the shootings between 1999 and 2011 when we completed the book.In all the cases in which the shooter was a current student we know 5 things:1. There was concerning behavior that was not coordinated by school personnel (i.e a security guard did not tell a teacher of an incident and a teacher did not know a security guard also knew of a concerning incident, or a teacher and a school admin did not know they each had concerns about a student)2. There were social media postings, writings or videos that spoke of killing or targeting specific groups of students.3. There was easy access to guns.4. There was suspicion of, or documented mental health concerns.5. There was a history of bullying and/or social isolation.We worked on and developed The School Violence Prevention Program as a book which school personnel could be trained on. We, as a team of clinicians and other interested parties conducted research and data collection. Our project lead, Dr. Jim Madero is an expert in workplace violence prevention so he had a lot of expertise in the area of violence prevention. We gathered the information and collective expertise and developed a community-based team approach to preventing school violence. Dr. Madero had the opportunity to present it at the Virginia Tech hearings where it got favorable feedback. Back here in San Diego, we shopped it around a few school districts and even did get it implemented in a district as a pilot trial. The problem was that, although many schools wanted it, they didn’t have funding for it. Why do they need funding? Why can’t we do this for free? There are trainings and meetings that need to be coordinated. Teachers and other school staff will need to leave their posts for the training, local law enforcement needs to attend (they are part of our prevent team plan) and experts need to train the staff on the protocol. Even in a world in which we could have them all gather and train them on a webinar, there are time and equipment costs involved in the production of the training material.The team dream was to get legislation passed in which the state mandated schools to have violence prevention programs. That’s where it all fell apart. After an unsuccessful meeting with a legal adviser in LA and no legitimate supporters that could help back the implementation of the program, we have been at a standstill 2012. We are just one group of professionals out here in southern California – I would venture to guess there are dozens of teams around the country like us developing programs. We need a way to get these programs implemented and school personnel trained! If anyone is listening who may be able to help that come to fruition, you can email me DrMullen@Coachingthrughchaos.com and Ill put you in contact with our project manager to help us take action.What can our society do to work towards School Violence Prevention?We need reformation in several areas. The systems in the U.S. are broken – There are financial, communication and internal breakdowns.1. Our mental health system broke in a way it has never recovered in 1993 when it was systematically unfunded and our long-term mental health facilities were forced to close. Those people still needed care and structure and our mental health system has been paying the price for that since then. Here we are 20 years later and it seems new funding gets put into street based program care for these people, leaving little room for the average high school student who’s depressed or feeling social isolated and ostracized because he’s been bullied. We need funding to help both the severely mentally ill and those that are falling through the cracks because they are not in “crisis”.2. That leads us to our health insurance system – Although I personally like my health care coverage, I am not in need of what’s called a “higher level of care”. In regards to mental health services that means needing therapy more than once a week. Our system is set up to deny services to people unless they are already in crisis – We have a “treat the crisis, then step-down” system. We have lots of good Intensive Outpatient Programs in our communities, but I’ve witnessed more denials happen on the way up the system than on the way down. If a therapist or an MD refers a client for an Intensive Outpatient program, we need them to be practically on the verge of hospitalization in order to get the help they need. These programs usually meet a few hours a day, a few days a week. They are designed to provide a person struggling with emotional distress a place to come to talk about it, learn some valuable coping skills, and build social support through the camaraderie of the group structure. When a person has been hospitalized (the hospitalization criteria is that they need to be “in danger of hurting themselves or someone else”) they are much more easily approved for an Intensive Outpatient Program as a means of stepping-down in services. Why do we have a system designed to only treat when there is a crisis? Why would the insurance companies not look at what can be done to prevent the crisis from happening?This is where I see that reform needs to take place in our health insurance system.3. Then we have the educational system. Of course having a good, consistent curriculum will benefit our next generations, but first and foremost, they need to be safe. It is when people are safe that they can then settle in, focus and thrive. As I stated earlier, the way to get safety in place is to provide schools the ability to implement expert-designed safety programs in our schools that are community based so that there are very few pieces of the puzzles missed in the future.4. The last system I will discuss and the one I think holds the most power is that of the media. I believe media can be our best friend and our worst enemy. In the event of major tragedies, the media can be quick to relay necessary information to help people comprehend what is happening. On the other hand, they can also give the recognition to these mass murderers that they so crave. Our mass murderers live on in infamy because our news media names them - and then picks over and publicizes every aspect of their life they can find. This needs to stop!The Bystander Effect and How it Factors into our Societal BreakdownLong before the days of the internet and social media, we have the story of Kitty Geneovese which is taught in every intro psych class in the country. In 1964, Kitty was murdered in the early morning as she returned home from work. She was stabbed to death in the street. The story was that upwards of 30 people either heard her or saw her. For as much as there were a couple of phone calls to the police, the majority of people did not take action (There is now debate over how many witnesses existed). This idea that many people can observe something troubling happening and not take action is called the Bystander Effect – We think someone else will call it in. Well, I want to put a challenge out to everyone reading this and say, “Don’t let someone else call it in”.What Can You Do? Don’t Be a Bystander!• Advocate to your insurance company when denials are rendered,• Don’t watch the continued news coverage of the shooter,• Talk to your school districts and universities and find out what their safety protocols are,• Talk to your local and state level politicians- find out what they’re doing to get mandated school violence prevention programs in your schools.What Progress Have We Made to Prevent School Violence through Legislation?Form what I can find, Massachusetts is voting to mandate school violence prevention programs be implemented in its schools. Virginia mandates their state colleges to have prevention programs, and Ontario, Canada has mandated their schools have violence prevention programs. It s definitely a start, but we’ve got a long road ahead of us.What About the “Gun Debate”?I can’t write about preventing school shootings without acknowledging the highly emotionally-fueled gun debate. It’s everywhere. I’m not really ready to jump into the politics of this. What we know is that a great majority of these shooters gained easy access to guns in their own home. I have mixed emotions about gun restrictions. What I don’t have mixed emotions about is gun safety. My take on it is that if you choose to own a gun, no matter what the law in your state says you’re allowed to do as far as locking it up or not locking it up, it is your responsibility to make sure it does not get into someone else’s hands.The Re-Cap: What We NeedWe have systems that are failing us. We need prevention programs in place that are designed to protect our kids at school. We need school violence prevention programs in addition to “active shooter” protocols. We need media outlets to stop giving these mass murderers names and attention and we need a health care system designed to prevent mental health tragedies rather than treating the trauma that happens to our communities when they don’t. I personally hope we start seeing a movement towards positive change, resiliency and victory over these tragedies.
