Mental health and suicide prevention professionals encounter unique challenges in their demanding roles. Exposure to traumatic events, heavy workloads, and emotional labor can lead to burnout, compassion fatigue, and even suicidality. Despite these difficulties, research reveals a significant gap in help-seeking behavior within this professional community. In this presentation, we delve into the critical topic of self-care. Specifically, we explore how personal mental well-being, embracing help-seeking, and managing self-stigma are integrated into education and training for mental health and suicide prevention professionals. Investing in the mental health of our future workforce is not merely self-serving—it is essential. By equipping professionals with the knowledge and skills to prioritize their own well-being, we empower them to provide better care for both themselves and their clients. Ultimately, this approach contributes to a more sustainable and effective mental health and suicide prevention system. The author will provide an overview of relevant studies, drawing from personal experiences as a medical student and later as a developer of a training curriculum in the field of health care.
