Mental illness is the leading cause of disability in America and costs roughly $192 per year.
Innovative treatments, better diagnostics, and better use of technology could improve the outcomes for people with mental illness.

Sometimes we say we're fine when we're not.
It's #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek. 1 in 4 of us will experience a mental health problem this year, so if your friend is acting differently, ask twice.
May is #mentalhealthawarenessmonth 🌸
Did you know that nearly 60% of adults with a mental illness didn’t receive mental health treatment services in the past year? Remember, #therapyispunkrock and you shouldn’t feel scared to seek help! ✨
Don’t forget: on Mondays this month, there will be an advocate on campus from 4PM-6PM in Hawthorn 208! They are trained to provide crisis intervention, counseling, and support to survivors of sexual violence, domestic violence, & human trafficking.
There’s no shame in:
Moving at a different pace
Reaching burnout in your life
Needing time to soul search
Needing more time to process things
Asking for help
Realizing when you’re wrong
Admitting when someone else is right
Turning things around when lost
Starting over
We must stop speaking to ourselves in self-abusive ways, and thinking it will help us 'be better'. Abuse does not cause us to flourish, does not cause us to thrive, although it may temporarily cause us to work harder out of fear. #therapy
Thank you for the reminder, @ladygaga! If you’re a musician or music industry worker & you’re struggling w/ mental health, don’t go at it alone. Punk Talks can help you find help 💜 #therapyispunkrock
