Скачать или смотреть Part 1: How awareness of mental health conditions mitigates mental health stigma? by Carla Castillo

"People tend to treat mental health like some big scary monster in Singapore," shares Carla, a youth community member with Resilience Collective.

Hear as Carla sheds a light on the need to understand mental health conditions to help mitigate the barriers of mental health stigma. She mentions having to face mental health stigma due to the lack of understanding of mental health conditions and symptoms, especially among adults such as parents or their loved ones. To continue tackling stigma, Carla also explains the need to be more aware of such conditions and symptoms to be able to nurture empathy to erase the walls of stigma.

About It Starts With You
It Starts With You is a social media initiative by Resilience Collective that chronicles your pivotal decision to begin your mental health recovery journey.

We would love to know from you what happened and how. Was it support from a friend, a loved one, a clinical professional you consulted that started you on your recovery? Or was it the support another peer provided you that helped you see that recovery is possible?

Through the initiative, we hope that these real sharings from our community will showcase the impact of peer support and resilience building that Resilience Collective can provide for young adults from 18 - 35 who are going through mental health struggles. This initiative is also part of our efforts to build a holistic resource for peers to tap upon and be that source of support for one another through their mental health recovery journeys!
