During Suicide Prevention Month, let's unite to break the silence and dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health. It's time to create a society, workplaces, and family spaces where seeking help is seen as a strength, not a weakness, and where no one feels isolated in their struggles. By shining a spotlight on these issues, we hope more people will come together to educate themselves and learn about mental health struggles. It's important to be open and non-judgmental and to create a safe space. We all can offer support because sometimes just being there for someone makes a huge difference. Let's all be advocates for change. #SuicidePreventionMonth #BreakTheSilence #EndTheStigma #MentalHealthMatters #YouAreNotAlone #StrengthInSupport

A truly good life is not about how much we can buy or achieve, but about how we relate to ourselves, our communities, and our environment.

A key step to the success, yay usefulness, of this rule is the level data availability transparency from the 3rd party payors. Nevertheless, it’s an exciting step forward for the Behavioral sector of the US Healthcare System.

This is incredible news! So many have campaigned for the Mental Health Act (UK) to be reformed - Mind, especially - as it is not fit for purpose (more here on why: https://lnkd.in/eryH4pSt.) Hopefully the reformation will take into account the voices of those with lived experience, to ensure it's suitable and supportive in a way that actually helps formal patients, and gives them more say in their own treatment. #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthact
In the #KingsSpeech, the UK government just committed to reforming the Mental Health Act. We’re over the moon 🎉 This has taken years of campaigning from across the mental health sector and will make a huge difference to people's lives. But it’s not the end of our fight. There are some key things that need to be included in any reforms to make sure they reflects the voices of people with mental health problems. And we’ll keep pushing to make sure those voices are heard in the right places.

This is progress. But. I want to see more schools with properly funded, fully functioning SEND units. I want to see comprehensive, accessible programmes that support neurodivergent young people into work. I want to see shorter waiting lists for NHS mental health therapies, rather than money spent on online support to fill the gap while people wait years, not months, for desperately needed therapies. Will this government be able to deliver? #mentalhealth #intowork #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthsupport #disabilityawareness #autismawareness #neurodiverse
