  • The stigma surrounding mental illness needs to end. Online there are numerous myths perpetuated way too often for me to be comfortable. Let’s fight against it. Please and thanks.

    Great rant. It's important to fight the stigma whether or not we're personally affected. Agree with the comment above that Universal Healthcare will be the first practical step towards progress.

      Saylor Tusk Thanks! And I totally agree that universal healthcare would help so much. People would be able to access the care they need while now sometimes people don't seek help because they can't afford it.

    Mucho Gracias for addressing a formerly Taboo Subject however, there are some strange Anomalies with Both cases you mentioned at the onset-keep them “rants” a comin’ (mine are more Rambles & I think you’re correct in keeping them around the 15 minute mark 🍀 )

    Preach girl! People are very ignorant and choose to overlook/stigmatize mental illness as though it's not real. It's a sad truth. But videos like this are what's going to help shift our world's view of it all. I share similar messages on my channel and I'm always looking to support others who are doing the same. Liked & subscribed! :)

      Christina Laura Thank you so much for watching and subscribing! I appreciate it. I do think when we have discussions like this it can hopefully help educate those who are ignorant about mental illness. Erasing the stigma will take time, but every step forward matters. 😊
