Welcome to Episode 7 of ‘The OK Guard Show’! In this episode, we sit down with three behavioral health specialists, Capt. William Dycus, Amber McCoy and Michele Burris, and talk about suicide awareness and prevention for Suicide Prevention Month. We also include a message from Maj. Gen. Michael Thompson, the adjutant general for Oklahoma, who discusses the importance of being there for your battle buddy and family members.
Remember, you are not alone. There is always someone in your corner, so if you’re having thoughts of suicide or know someone who is, reach out to someone for help and #BeThere.
