May is Mental Health Awareness Month

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to recognize the importance of mental health and well-being. Psychological health is a vital part of the overall strength of someone, though it is often overlooked and stigmatized in our society. Mental Health Awareness Month aims to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and provide support for those who may be struggling with psychological issues. We, at Bio-One Scottsdale, believe in the motto: "Help First, Business Second". We change clients' lives every day. What may seem like an average job for us, is a huge step for a client to take no matter the situation. Our quick response and quick project completion turnover are life-changing; sometimes as little as a week!

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, approximately one in five adults in the United States experience psychological illness in a given year. Mental illness can take many forms, including anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), among others. It can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status.

What can you do?

Mental Health Awareness Month provides an opportunity to educate ourselves and others about the illness, and to take action to support those who may be struggling. Here are some ways that you can get involved:

  1. Educate yourself: Learn more about mental health and the different types of illness. Read books, articles, and online resources to expand your knowledge and understanding.
  2. Raise awareness: Use social media to share information and resources about mental health. Encourage friends and family to talk openly about their own experiences with mental illness.
  3. Support those who are struggling: If someone you know is struggling with issues, offer your support and understanding. Listen without judgment and encourage them to seek professional help if needed.
  4. Take care of your own mental health: Self-care is essential for maintaining good well-being. Additionally, make time for activities that you enjoy, get enough sleep, eat a healthy diet, and practice stress-reducing activities such as meditation or yoga.
  5. Advocate for better mental health services: Services are often underfunded and understaffed. Advocate for better access to specific services in your community and support organizations that provide those services.
  6. Volunteer for local psychological health organizations
