Mental Health Awareness Month takes on more importance for Daniel Dye, who has been promoting mental health on his vehicle during races.
Daniel Dye lost a cousin to suicide a couple of years ago, so when the topic of mental health comes up, he has a strong connection to the conversation. As the 20-year-old raced this month and enters this weekend's race near St. Louis as one of those drivers the camera focuses on as he is outside the playoff bubble in a quest to earn a truck series playoff spot, he has used the spotlight to help bring awareness during May to Mental Health Awareness Month.
' The program took on extra meaning for Dye after his cousin's death. 'I was pretty pissed off I couldn't prevent my own cousin from taking his own life,' Dye said. 'And it wasn't so much that it was maybe eye-opening about that or maybe we need to do more than we were doing. 'We continue to do as much as we know how to do. I'm not a psychologist. ... It's just having a heart and making people feel better. I still haven't processed it. It's tough.
