Understanding the early-life origins of suicide: Vulnerability may begin even before birth
People considering their own death have often gone through long periods of intense suffering and internal struggles. They may have endured mental illness and experienced a range of adverse life events. Helping people suffering from a mental disorder and/or going through a difficult time is therefore of the utmost importance to preventing suicide.
Mental Illness Awareness Week is underway (October 3-9, 2021). Dr. Srividya N. Iyer, one of 2021's Mental Health Champions, spoke to Radio Canada on the occasion, underscoring the need for early intervention, and for well-integrated services for those who are most at need. .

Let them hit snooze: Sleeping in helped teenagers cope with pandemic stress, study finds
Congratulations to Dr. C茅cile Rousseau on her ! The Teasdale-Corti Humanitarian Award recognizes doctors who make truly exceptional sacrifices, often while exposing themselves to personal risk.
While poor sleep was linked to higher levels of stress during the COVID-19 pandemic, more teens actually obtained the recommended amount of sleep compared to pre-pandemic sleep patterns, according to a new study from 91社区. Changes to daily routines triggered by lockdowns allowed teenagers to follow their biological impulse to wake up and sleep later, reducing daytime sleepiness.
