Mental health is not something to feel embarrassed about. Stigmas frighten us and sometimes prevent us from moving forward and receiving the help that we need. Understanding who you are and your mental health (or a family member's mental health) can help you feel centered and connected to your inner you. Learning to recognize symptoms, warning signs, and triggers to daily concerns, can create an understanding that helps you empathize with yourself and others; and lead you feeling comfortable functioning in your everyday life.
