Mental Health Tips: Storytelling

 

Since this month is mental health awareness month, this is a continuation of my series on mental health. Today's focus is on various conversations that have been happening around mental health this month.

The Better Together Mental Health Storytelling Summit  included multiple conversations around mental health and storytelling with creators, actors, singers, … focused on how creators can create characters and shows that are more representative and more sensitive of the wide range of mental health struggles people face. A wide range of shows from comedies to drama to classic films are included. (Note the link will send you to a log in screen, in the middle of the page it says "Haven't registered? Click here to sign up" sign up is free and you have access even though the conference is over at this point)

If you have access to Instagram check out the mentalhealthcoalition which for this whole month have been sharing 1 2 1 conversations where two people talk about the mental health struggles they have faced. I watched the one with Chasten Buttigieg which was interesting. There is a whole set of these conversations and I bet they are all cool even though I have not watched them all.
