This year’s theme is “You Are Not Alone.”

Blue light harms mental health 🌙
It suppresses melatonin, disrupts sleep, worsens anxiety/depression & reduces focus.

🔹 Use blue light filters/glasses
🔹 Limit screens before bed
🔹 Try red lights at night

Protect your mind. 💡

Mental health isn’t just about avoiding breakdowns—it’s about daily choices.

✅ Talk, reflect, seek help, stay mindful
❌ Don’t suppress, isolate, or ignore your struggles

Seeking help = strength.

MYTHS vs FACTS: Let’s Talk Mental Health
Mental health is real — and seeking help is strength, not weakness. Myths like “it’s just a phase” or blaming people for their struggles only fuel stigma.
As future healthcare pros, let’s lead with truth, empathy, and action.

[NiMSA-ILUMSA Mental Health Advocacy Team @ILUMSA_MHA]

Welcome to Mental Health Awareness Month! This May, let’s prioritize our minds—because Mental Health Matters. Speak up, seek help, and support one another. Together, we break the stigma.
