May is Mental Health Month: Do More for 1 in 4
This May is Mental Health Month and we are calling on the community to help the 1 in 4 American adults who live with a diagnosable, treatable mental health condition and understand how important mental health is to overall health.
We want people to know that while mental health and substance use conditions are common, they are extremely treatable and individuals go on to recover and lead full and productive lives.
Too many people who are living with a mental health condition never seek or receive help due to stigma, lack of information, cost, or lack of health care insurance coverage— as high as 50 percent!
We want to change equation and help our families, friends and co-workers who may be reluctant to ask for help or don’t know where to find it.
We recognize how essential mental health is to our overall health and well-being, and we know how events and life changes can affect us. It could be someone managing the stress of caregiving or divorce, or coping with losing a loved one. Sometimes people are dealing with depression associated with a chronic disease such as diabetes, cancer or hypertension.
We have incredible amounts of knowledge about how to identify and even prevent mental health conditions…
