Suicide is a growing public health concern that’s difficult to talk about. Unless we start talking about it, people will continue to live in the silence, shame and heartbreak that often occurs after a suicide. In recognition of Mental Health Month, COFAMH and NAMI-NC have organized this annual public gathering to talk about suicide. Opening up and speaking out helps healing, and can help others when they, too, loose all hope in life.

________________________________________________

For most people diagnosed with severe mental illness, their first episode occurs in their late teens or early twenties. This documentary explores the “first break” of three young adults and their families. Simon is a college student when he begins experiencing the symptoms of schizophrenia. A young woman struggles with depression as she attempts to balance independence with the need for support from her family and a single mother experiences a severe manic episode.
