May, we come together to continue the tradition of promoting awareness, offering vital resources and education, and advocating for the mental health and well-being of everyone.
This year’s theme is Where to Start: Mental Health in a Changing World.
The world is constantly changing – for better or for worse – and it can be overwhelming to deal with everything going on around you. While society is getting more comfortable discussing mental health, it can still be hard to know “Where to Start” when it comes to taking care of your own well-being.
This May, Mental Health America will help you:
- LEARN how modern life affects mental health with new resources to navigate our changing world.
- ACT by building your coping toolbox so you can manage stress, difficult emotions, and challenging situations.
- ADVOCATE to improve mental health for yourself, your friends and family, and your community.
For anyone struggling with the pressure of today’s world, feeling alone, or wondering if they can feel better, this is Where to Start.
