“Mental health” Emotional, psychological, and social well-being. How we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is a spectrum. Many factors contribute to mental health, including: Biological factors, such as genes or brain chemistry Life experiences, such as trauma or abuse Lifestyle and life circumstances, such as diet and exercise, social support availability, opportunities for relaxation Source: U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services, MentalHealth.gov (2019)

Mental health conditions are common, yet often unseen In 2018, 47.6 million adults aged 18 or older reported experiencing mental health conditions at some point during the previous year. 1 in 5 American adults experience a mental health condition every year, and 1 in 25 lives with a serious mental illness. = Source: National Institutes for Mental Health, 2019

The effect of Mental Health conditions For nearly 40 years, mental health conditions have been the second-most common cause of disability in the United States.1 70% of those diagnosed with a mental health condition also experience a co-morbid illness,2 such as obesity and diabetes—and in higher rates than in the general population.3 Sources: United States Social Security Administration (2013) Kessler et al. (2004) Firth et al. (2019)

Only 43% of American adults with mental health conditions, and 64% of adults with serious mental illness, receive treatment. No insurance or poor coverage1 Limited access to healthcare providers2,3 Attitudinal factors4 “I can handle this on my own.” “Strong people don’t need help.” Stigma5 Sources: Graison Dangor, NPR (June 17, 2019) Mental Health America (2019) Andrilla et al.

Personal stigma Lack of mental health knowledge and/or confidence1,2 Unfamiliarity with cultural or religious norms3 Differing views of collaboration4 Sources: Brunero et al., 2018 Reed & Fitzgerald, 2005 Carpenter-Song et al., 2010 Pals & Hempler, 2018 DISCUSSING MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES WITH PROVIDERS CAN BE TOUGH

Myth: People with serious mental illness are violent and unstable. Truth: Only 3%–5% of violent acts can be attributed to individuals living with a serious mental illness.1 People with serious mental illnesses are over 10 times more likely to be victims of violent crime than the general population.2 Racism, hate, and domestic disputes are far more reliable and frequent indicators of violence than mental health issues. 3 Sources: Fazel & Grann, 2006 Choe et al., 2008 KVIA.com, Jan. 9, 2020

Myth: Once you’re diagnosed with a mental health condition, you’ll never recover. Truth: Just like with physical illness such as diabetes or asthma, mental health conditions can be successfully treated and managed. “Recovery,” or the process in which people are able to live, work, learn, and participate in their communities, is unique for everyone. It can include medication, talk therapy, lifestyle change and/or group support. Source: MentalHealth.gov
Slide 12-

Myth: People with mental health conditions aren’t productive employees and can’t handle the stress of a job. Truth: When people with mental health conditions receive proper treatment and symptom management, they can be as effective on the job as those without diagnosed mental health issues.

Communication counts Reduce stigma, stereotypes, and discriminatory behavior against people experiencing mental health conditions Help people recognize symptoms of mental health conditions in themselves1 and others Increase the rate of treatment-seeking2 Improve the mental health care people receive when they do seek help Sources: Hahm et al., 2019 Ross & Goldner, 2009; Schulze, 2007; Schulze & Angermeyer, 2003 By communicating more thoughtfully about mental health conditions, we can:

Build an instinct toward person-first language Avoid Saying… That’s crazy/ psycho/ insane. She’s a schizophrenic. He’s bipolar. substance abuse or addict suffering from mental illness successful suicide or committed suicide Instead, say… That’s wild/ bizarre/ odd. She has been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. He has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. substance use disorder living with (or experiencing) mental health conditions completed suicide/ died by suicide

A 2019 study of 1,300 Tweets found that mental illnesses were more stigmatized and trivialized than physical illnesses. AVOID Trivialization Source: Robinson, Turk, Jilka & Cella, 2019 RT@***; I have so much OCD when it comes to the notifications on my phone I wish anorexia was something I could catch, I could really use it rn RT@***: his laugh will cure depression and cancer
