S2 EP4: Breaking Stigma; Debunking Common Mental Health Myths
May 20, 2024 Season 2 Episode 4
HHCI

In today's episode of the Madness & Grace Podcast, we tackle common misconceptions about mental health and their impact on society. We discuss how these myths create stigma and prevent people from seeking help, and we look at the role of media and popular culture in either reinforcing or challenging these false beliefs. We'll also explore myths about mental illness within faith communities and talk about how personal stories can help debunk these myths and build empathy. We also share practical ways to create supportive environments for those facing mental health challenges.

Join us for a meaningful conversation aimed at breaking down barriers and fostering understanding.
