Happy Mental Health Month.....by Susan

 May is Mental Health Month.   This is a time for us to work harder at attempting to raise awareness about mental health issues. 

According to the Mental Health Association, 95% of us talk to someone about important decisions in our lives.  I would imagine this would include family members, other relatives, friends and professionals.  It sounds like many of us are getting support and have friends.  

I happened upon an article written by Dr. John Grohol which addresses the findings of the Mental Health Association.  You can find it in the PsychCentral Newsletter.   I think it is interesting.   In the article there is a link to the survey and findings of the Mental Health Association.  It's really worth reading.

I hope our blog readers have people in their lives who are supportive and lend an ear when you need it.   David and I have found that having each others' support, makes a huge difference in our ability to keep on going when things are tough.  

Happy Mental Health Month to everyone!
