One teen's attempt to understand mental illness and suicidal ideation after losing her best friend to suicide. Join Kid in the Corner and Mental Health America of Arizona as we view this very important film about youth mental health and suicide awareness. We will follow the screening with a youth panel discussing mental health, stress and resources as we embark on the stressful season of finals and holidays. Recommended for middle school and above. Mental Health Professionals will be on sight for anyone who needs support. Driven by a desire to understand why her best friend killed herself at 16, Jacqueline Monetta (18), gets teens suffering to share their struggles with mental illness and suicide attempts. Through her intimate one-on-one interviews, Jacqueline, and the audience learn about depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicide attempts, getting help and treating mental illness. As their stories unfold, they assure the audience that mental illnesses, like physical illnesses, can and should be treated.
