Description

May is Mental Health Awareness month. Join us as we talk about "masking" and why we do it. Masking can sometimes be necessary to keep you safe or help you maintain relationships. Maksing can also be exhuasting. Sigma is at the root of masking. Unlike noticable physical health conditions, people with mental health conditions can't control how people react to their symptoms. Changing ones own behavior may feel like a safer option. How can we learn to cope with our mental health struggles while breaking down the stigma? Join us as we uncover what's behind the mask.
