EP68 - #SAMEHERE Global Mental Health Movement with Eric Kussin

Hard Beautiful Journey - Vulnerable Conversations about Grief, Trauma, Addictions and Mental Health

Today on the show is Eric Kussin who is the founder of the organization #samehere Global Mental Health Movement.

Eric shares his personal story of fighting against a severe mental health crisis, how he was misdiagnosed for years, the missing part of the equation, and what led him to founding a global mental health movement.

A big fan of marketing, psychology, and sport, Eric combined all three and began reaching out to his contacts to discuss how they could attack the mental health epidemic strategically and differently than had ever been done before. He had to bring purpose to his own experience and believed he must have gone through that horrific period for a reason.

With suicides at a 30-year high, and drug/opioid abuse out of control, he knows something major must change with the messaging if we’re to reverse these negative trends. And I couldn't agree with him more.
