In Part One on Mental Health / Wellness: Your Mind Matters, we were able to explain the difference between mental health and mental illness, gave our results on our Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) test, and talked about the different types of family mental health challenges. We also referenced the mental health struggles and concerns of the black family. Join us in Part Two of our series as our YPMV panel, along with our special guest, Jasmine, dive into what mental self-care looks like, as well as spotlight the impact of mental health on black males. June is Men’s Mental Health Month, and more conversation needs to be had regarding how a man “processes” rather than “deals with” his mental health.
