The Art of Mental Health Advocacy | Matilda (crazyheadcomics) | TEDxKI

[@robertdabneyjr]

"Modern society is incompatible with our mental healthcare needs" This sentence holds so much weight and I hope that we can begin to grasp this and make the necessary cultural adjustments. Thanks for sharing your voice Matilda! You've definitely inspired me!

[@DepressionTalks1]

This was awesome:] Thank you for advocating for mental health!

The fact THT ths video only had 5k views is a reflection of the points made in this video about how seriously we need DONT take mental health,collectively! I pray for all of us suffering with mental health issues, especially the ones whom ppl overlook becuz they appear to always have things under control! Bless

Thanks for talking about the need to tell kids that it's ok to ask for help! And to underline that social and economic issues have a role in mental health practices and care.

[@wesntylol]

Beautifully said! Thank you for being a voice and advocate for so many 💚

[@amerthgabriela]

[@renee.ashh333]

i agree!!

[@matildev152]

Such a great talk! Thank you for talking about the need to make mental healthcare more accessible! Leaders need to make this a priority

[@jbri1]

The points you raise are really important. My 17 year old Nephew is aware of mental health and wasnt too ashamed to discuss the issue with my girlfriend and I, so that was really encouraging to see. Maybe younger people will be better prepared to approach these issues. Still, we can never disccuss mental illness too much. Thanks

YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@deligarga6195]

thank you for talking about this! i follow you on insta and always appreciate how open and real you are about your struggles❤ i agree with everything you said. i only got help for my anxiety and depression 8 years after i developed them. and im just now learning that i have adhd and that it is what caused my depression and anxiety. i am 20 years old. i am seen as "high-functioning" because i can hold down a job, but i am only able to do that through intense masking and being in a constant state of burnout therapy that is actually helpful for me costs hundreds of dollars a month, and im one of the lucky ones because my parents insurance still covers me. (edit: it doesnt cover me anymore cuz i work over 30hrs a week...) the mental health system in Canada is so underequipped and underfunded. there arent any options between a couple therapy sessions thru the healthcare system and psychiatric hospitalisation. there are hundreds of thousands of people falling through the cracks and no one seems to care

[@Ju-jv8fp]

Yessss 😍

[@FahadAli-ho1wx]

What was the primary concept conveyed in this video?

[@venusnightshade]

Just to clarify, adults over the age of 55 have the highest rates of completed suicide, especially men over 65. The over 55 demographic is invisible, and that is unacceptable.
