Supporting Each Other: Fostering Mental Health Awareness

The Bite Size Podcast with Lorayne Michaels

Hidden in plain sight, mental health issues affect one in four adults, yet we often shrug off the signs. Let's change that narrative together. I, Lorayne Michaels, invite you to a candid conversation about mental health awareness, specifically focusing on anxiety and depression. We'll touch upon some surprising statistics, delve into the signs and symptoms of mental illness, and discuss the importance of empathy. You'll learn that acknowledging mental health issues is not a weakness but a strength.
I'll take you through my own journey, battling mental health issues and the critical role professional help played in my recovery. We'll explore the significance of self-care, and I'll guide you through the means to lend your support to someone experiencing mental illness. Remember, your willingness to help can be a beacon of hope for someone struggling. Together, let's shed the stigma and foster a supportive environment for mental health—because every struggle shared is a step towards healing. Tune in, let's talk, let's learn, and let's support.
