Everyone has mental health. Mental health does not mean mental illness.<\/p>\n
Forty-six percent of people will meet criteria for a mental health condition at some point in their lives (Mental Health America).<\/p>\n
Mental health can be strengthened by protective factors such as social support, physical activity, pets, community engagement, hobbies, creative activities, and abstinence from drugs\/alcohol.<\/p>\n

Friday October 11, 2024<\/strong><\/p>\nHow can we start to destigmatize mental health? By using inclusive language and being mindful when talking about mental health.<\/p>\n
By decreasing the stigma associated with mental illness, inclusive language helps people who struggle with suicidality, depression, and other mental health issues feel understood. (Source: APA (2023). Inclusive language guide (2nd<\/sup> ed.)<\/p>\nExamples of inclusive language for mental health:<\/p>\n
Using first personal language: This means putting the person before their diagnosis or condition. Example, instead of \u201ca schizophrenic\u201d or \u201can addict\u201d, say \u201ca person with schizophrenia\u201d or \u201ca person with substance use disorder\u201d<\/p>\n
Using respectful and accurate terms: Avoid using outdated offensive or inaccurate words when talking about mental health issues. For example, instead of \u201ccrazy\u201d, \u201cpsycho\u201d, or \u201cinsane\u201d, say \u201cmental health issue\u201d, \u201cmental illness\u201d, or \u201cpsychiatric disorder\u201d.<\/p>\n
