Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency
Here are today’s Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Mental Health Month:
In the spirit of eliminating the stigma around mental health challenges here are some Do's And Don'ts
Do:
- Educate yourself about mental health challenges and issues
- Foster a healthy workplace environment
- Emphasize abilities, not limitations
- Use respectful language
- Refer to the person not the disability or illness
- Tell people when they express a stigmatizing attitude
Do Not:
- Portray successful people with disabilities as the exception
- Use generic labels such as “retarded” or “the mentally ill”
- Use terms like “crazy,” “lunatic,” or “insane” in general conversation
- Don’t let stigma create self-doubt and shame
It is everyone's responsibility to reduce the stigma, prejudice and discrimination associated with mental health issues. Education, understanding, and support are key to creating a psychologically safe and healthy workplace.
