Mental health affects us all, and Nevada youth are no exception. This Mental Health Awareness Month, we encourage you to #TakeaMoment to engage in meaningful conversations and participate in the many NAMI programs that are available. Here in Nevada, The Nevada Teen Peer Support Text Line is a stigma-free, non-crisis peer support text service for adolescents and young adults ages 24 years and younger. Youth can text in at 775-296-8336 from 10 am to midnight 7 days a week and 365 days per year Now more than ever, it's time to realize the importance of destigmatizing mental health. Normalize the practice of taking moments to prioritize mental health care without guilt or shame. #stigmafree #mentalhealthmatters #TakeAMentalHealthMoment #MentalHealthMonth

The mental health statistics for youth in America are both sad and alarming. It's clear that we must act now. We should advocate for more accessible mental health services, increased awareness in schools, and community programs that foster resilience and well-being, to offer better support for those struggling with their mental health. #YouthMentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness

May is Mental Health Awareness Month This national observance was started in 1949 by Mental Health America to bring attention to the importance of mental well-being. This is a time to promote awareness, offer education and resources, and advocate for change. While society is getting more comfortable discussing mental health, stigma still exists. 💡Many Americans do not have access to high-quality, evidence-based treatment and care when they need it. 💡 Less than ½ of adults in the United States with mental illness received treatment in 2021. 💡1 in 5 adults experience mental illness each year. 💡1 in 6 youth in the United Stated have a mental health condition but only half receive treatment. Please take the time to talk about mental health and to create communities that value and support mental well-being. #MHAM2024 #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #selfcare #mindset #wellness #mentalwellbeing #stopthestigma

With almost 30 percent of German adults struggling with mental health in a year, it's crucial to raise awareness. We must create a supportive environment. That's why I took part in the MHFA Ersthelfer Mental Health First Aid training and am now a certified Mental Health First Aider. MHFA teaches us to recognize, understand, and assist those facing mental health challenges. We have learned to recognize problems early, find access to those affected, and help others overcome a mental health crisis. We now know how to provide support and information, encourage professional help, and activate additional resources. This training is instructive and important, for the people around us - and for ourselves. It's okay not to be okay. Seeking help is a sign of strength. Check it out and become a Mental Health First Aider yourself. #mhfa #MentalHealthAwareness #WorkplaceWellness #Mentalhealth #Wellbeing #BreakTheStigma Thanks to my employer Vattenfall for making this training possible.

While I was on my downtime, we decided to share some treasures with the Youth. Mental Health Issues are common, yet sometimes go unnoticed by many. Education is the key for many to receive help and gain support. Let's help our upcoming generations by tapping into new and older concepts that will help them navigate through their tough times. Continually I will try to support good mental health behaviors! #youthmentalhealth #firstaidUSA #mentalhealthclass #youthmentalhealthbooks #mentalhealthawarness #educationonmentalhealth
