Sharing – Mental Health Checkups and a Continuum of Intervention
I’ve written over the last few months about my diagnosis of diabetes and the medical care I’ve gotten. I appreciate the fact that my treatment plan included providers asking about my mental health. This kind of thing can be overwhelming, and in that kind of situation, it never hurts to ask and check on someone’s mental health. I don’t think everyone gets that same level of concern, and I’m not sure that, outside of a life-changing diagnosis, anyone would have been checking on my mental health in the same way.
