How Do We Combat The Stigma Surrounding Mental Health?

@Avies

Hi I may not be the best person since where I live I live among people who I learned are ableist. They do not treat me with respect from restaurants to old next door neighbors to older folks who think I am a joke. But I really want to leave where I live. I do not feel loved nor wanted here. But one thing I do care about is my health. I could care less what they think about me getting treatment. I have to take care of my mental health not their egotistic behaviors which is actually ableism. We live in a world that was not created for persons with disabilities. It is an ableist world.

This is just my opinion

I think what you guys are doing now is helping by talking about these kinda things from your own experience and sharing it with others who know what it's like

Working together to find a solution would probably be the best way to help which is what I think 7cups is about

Another thing would be to help people make better health decisions for themselves and their loved ones

This community is a great start to being more active for this cause

We need more people to think like you
