mental health
four little words...
MENTAL HEALTH is HEALTH.
making others aware of mental health struggles is a constant challenge.
no one LIKES to have these difficult conversations.
but what if...
there is a way to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health + make it as common a topic of conversation as physical health?
how?
we just start.
here are some examples of how we can normalize mental health in our everyday conversations:
- talk about the importance of self-care + mental well-being. Don't be afraid to start the discussion.
- share articles or stories about mental health.
- reach out to someone if you think they are struggling with mental health + offer support if needed.
- use inclusive language when talking about mental illness.
- challenge negative stereotypes about mental illness.
