I know that Christmas time is supposed to be a joyous occasion. But if you or someone you know is struggling with loneliness, isolation, depression, anxiety or suicidal thoughts this holiday season, I encourage you to call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-8255 (TALK). If you are a veteran or the spouse of a veteran, call that same number and press 1. You do not have to grieve in isolation if you have lost loved ones this holiday or any season.
