Breaking the Silence: NAMI Bucks County's Fight for Mental Health Awareness

I think it's important that the people that are affected by mental illness and get through it, maybe not through it, but learn to live well with it, help the people that might still be struggling. People like us that have been there are talking to somebody who's gone, who is there?
Ever wondered how mental health advocates manage to break through the silence and stigma surrounding mental illness? In this compelling episode of 'Rescue the Rescuer', Nicholas Emeigh and Rohan Sharma, both passionate speakers for the Ending the Silence Program at NAMI Bucks County, join Debbie Moritz, the Executive Director, to share their experiences and insights. They dive deep into the challenges faced by first responders and their families, shedding light on the often-overlooked emotional toll of their work.
Nicholas and Rohan recount their personal battles with mental illness, highlighting the power of storytelling in reducing shame and stigma. Debbie discusses the invaluable resources and support NAMI Bucks County offers to individuals and families grappling with mental health issues. This episode isn't just about the struggles; it also focuses on practical advice for self-care and emotional resilience.

Tune in to hear how sharing experiences can pave the way for a more compassionate and understanding society.
