Link – Asian American Mental Health and the ‘Model Minority’ Myth

Figures of people

Depression does not care what your ethnic background or culture is. It does not discriminate.

Based on data from www.MHAScreening.org, we know that Asian Americans are least likely to have a history of diagnosis even though 57% of those who completed a mental health screen scored moderately to severely depressed. Asian Americans are also three times less likely to seek mental health services.
