Walking 135 miles for mental health awareness

Carrying a 25-pound pack, UT student Dylan Woollard trekked 135 miles—one for every life lost daily to suicide last year. He started at the UT Tower and made it all the way to Killeen and back, sharing daily video messages urging folks to check in on loved ones. Dylan’s journey wasn’t just about the miles; it was about breaking the silence around mental health and raising funds for NAMI Texas and Stop Soldier Suicide. His message is clear: you don’t have to walk 100 miles to make a difference—sometimes, just reaching out can change a life. How do you support friends who might be struggling? #Health #MentalHealth #MentalHealthMatters

For those of us who’ve tried everything from nature walks to talking with friends, this could be a real lifeline—especially when time, money, or energy for traditional therapy runs low. It’s encouraging to see new options that fit into real life. What’s your experience with finding the right support?

Sabres unite Buffalo with mental health focus

Seeing the Buffalo Sabres put mental health front and center is a game-changer for our community. Before their win over the Flyers, they invited 300 local students to the arena for a real talk about mental wellness, featuring former Sabre Clint Malarchuk. It’s powerful to see a pro team openly support mental health—not just for their players, but for fans of all ages. In a city that lives and breathes hockey, this kind of leadership helps break the stigma and brings us all closer. What do you think—can more teams make this kind of impact? #Health #MentalHealth #BuffaloSabres

No More Screen Time Drama—Here’s How
