I bought this hoodie because I lost my brother to suicide two years ago. When I wear it, people ask me about the message and it opens up conversations I never thought I’d be able to have. It’s not just clothing—it feels like I’m carrying his story and raising awareness at the same time.

I’ve struggled with depression for years and most days it’s hard to even leave the house. When I saw this hoodie for Suicide Prevention Day, I knew I had to get it. Wearing it makes me feel part of a bigger community, like I’m not fighting this battle alone. The free Dear Person shirt was just the reminder I needed.

I ordered this hoodie for my daughter who has been very open about her mental health journey. When she opened it, she cried and said it was the first time she felt truly “seen.” It’s soft, comfortable, but most importantly it makes a statement. It’s more than fashion—it’s support.

I wore this hoodie to school on World Suicide Prevention Day and three people came up to me and shared their stories. That never would’ve happened otherwise. Sometimes the smallest message can create the biggest impact. I’m glad I bought it.

Honestly, I just thought it was a cool hoodie at first, but after wearing it I realized how much power the words carry. Friends I hadn’t talked to in years reached out when I posted a picture wearing it. It’s more than just comfort—it’s connection.

Never taking this hoodie off 🖤
