Скачать или смотреть Lessons from Mom: How to Help a Loved One with a Mental Illness | Sarah Mikulski | TEDxHarperCollege

Mental illness is still a taboo topic in our culture, but this talk will give you some tips you can use to support a loved one. Sarah Mikulski is from the Chicago area and attended Loyola University and the University of San Francisco as an undergrad, and got her master’s in teaching (M.A.T.) from Northeastern Illinois University. In addition to working as an ESL instructor, Sarah has also worn the hats of mother, wife, yoga instructor, Peace Corps volunteer (Poland ’01!), and caretaker of her mother, who struggled with bipolar disorder for over 20 years. Her experiences with learning how to best help her mother are what inspired her TEDx Talk at Harper College entitled “Lessons from My Mother: How to Help a Loved One with a Mental Illness.” This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
