Following Black activists & racial justice orgs is crucial. But it's important to uplift Black educators, content creators & leaders in EVERY space. #Mentalhealth has a long history of silencing BIPOC and its time we center their voices #BlackMentalHealth

Mental anxiety and physical pain are deeply linked, but not nearly as discussed as they should be. For those of you living with #anxiety, what physical symptoms do you experience?

Only 3 states require #mentalhealth education in schools: VA, NY & FL. And even then, their requirements are lacking. There's no reason given the growing wealth of knowledge we have abt mental illness & the proven efficacy of early intervention efforts that this isn't a priority

If ppl could "choose" to not be sick, they would. What makes a choice "easy" for someone? The way they think about that choice, their energy levels, how their brain regulates mood, their capacity to deal w/ stress, etc.   What does mental illness impact? All of the above.

Blaming mass violence on #mentalillness has real consequences for ppl w/ disorders that include symptomology like “violent thoughts.” Enacting laws based on those thoughts can put nonviolent ppl at risk of involuntary hospitalization, family separation, unemployment, etc.
Having a mental illness doesn't make someone a mass shooter. Neither does experiencing violent thoughts. We've spent years watching our community fight this kind of stigma, and refuse to lose progress now after coming so far. #DontBlameMentalIllness youtube.com/watch?v=2Qgw2xPJ…
