‘TIME TO TALK’ … ABOUT MENTAL ILLNESS

February is ‘Time To Talk’ month. Tragically, there remains a persistent stigma associated with mental illness in our society – feelings of isolation, shame, and worthlessness remain prevalent among those who so desperately need help, but fail to receive it. ‘Time To Talk’ month encourages everyone to be more interested in and open about discussing mental illness and health. At this time in our global pandemic circumstance, more than ever before, we must all provide the awareness, support and help that is so critical to so many that suffer from depression, anxiety, trauma, and a multitude of other issues that have devastating consequences.
