About Mental Health Awareness Month
May is Mental Health Awareness Month. This year’s theme is “Life with a Mental Illness.” Individuals living with a mental illness are being called upon to share what life feels like for them by tagging their social media posts with the hashtag #MentalIllnessFeelsLike. Sharing is the key to breaking down the discrimination and stigma surrounding mental illness and to show others that they are not alone
