We still need to go further and it takes certain situations to bring it to the forefront, like affecting middle-class white America or state senators whose son was mentally ill and he was allowed to let go and then laws were changed to address that issue.
How often do we think about the role social economics plays in mental health? In this episode of 'Speaking Candidly with Candace', host Candace Schoner sits down with Jeff, a seasoned mental health professional, to dive into this very topic. They tackle the tricky issues of medication management, the importance of support groups, and the accessibility of mental health services.
Jeff opens up about his own journey into the field, sharing personal anecdotes that highlight the real-world impact of these challenges. He also sheds light on the persistent stigma surrounding mental health and the urgent need to address it. Candace and Jeff weigh the pros and cons of group therapy versus online therapy, offering listeners a balanced perspective. This episode is not just informative but also deeply empathetic, providing hope and support for anyone touched by mental health issues.
Jeff's poignant remark about how it often takes high-profile cases to bring about change serves as a powerful reminder of the work still needed in this area. Tune in for an honest, heartfelt discussion that aims to break down barriers and foster understanding.
