Sharing – A Look at Mental Health Treatment Stigma
ByMikeM May 5, 2020May 5, 2020 Reading Time: 2 minutes

As a blogger, and social media user, yes I want to try and be as careful as I can to post supportive messages, and not make anyone feel stigmatized through my words. That’s important, but I also have to remember that everyone is different. When you’re talking with someone through whatever medium, it’s important to not assume ill-intent. If the term “getting help” feels stigmatizing to you, simply ask people not to use it, suggest some other terms, etc. Have a conversation about how you want to talk about your mental health. Keep the lines of communication open, on both sides.

That’s how you end stigma. By communicating, instead of shutting anyone down.

Sharing – Child sex abuse survivors are five times more likely to be the victims of sexual assault later in life
ByMikeM July 24, 2020July 23, 2020 Reading Time: 2 minutes

The results of this study were pretty bleak, but they’re also complicated. “Unfortunately, though, child sexual abuse survivors were much more likely than those in the control group to be re-victimised in what are considered medium and high harm personal injury crimes.

ByMikeM January 8, 2018January 7, 2018 Reading Time: 1 minute

Society doesn’t value rest, it may be hurting our mental health tremendously. The researchers discovered that regular sleep disruptions are associated with difficulty in shifting one’s attention away from negative information. This may mean that inadequate sleep is part of what makes negative intrusive thoughts stick around and interfere with people’s lives, they say. https://psychcentral.com/news/2018/01/07/not-enough-sleep-linked-to-depression-and-anxiety/130871.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook

Sharing – Study leaves little doubt: Depression is linked to high body heat
