There still seems to be such a stigma about mental health because people can't identify with it. It's not tangible. You break a wrist and everyone rushes over to sign your cast but you suffer from something in the mind and people rush away from you. We accept emotions like grief because we can identify with them but those emotions that we cannot identify with we turn away from and scowl upon. This needs to change.
This is why I encourage everyone to open up about mental health, reach out to loved ones and challenge the stigma we have in society! #MentalHealthAwareness
