I'm using my expertise that I've learned in mental health advocacy in my story throughout the time so that way it's not just, oh, this was just my experience, but there is research and knowledge behind all of this that I use to show how there were so many opportunities prior to that incident in which I could have gotten the help or my help could have been more effective.

to where the incident could have been prevented and it did not have to get to that crisis point for me to finally accept my mental illness. And I hope that when people hear that, they're like, they're thinking like, oh, I could do something now if I'm struggling. I could help someone else who I know is struggling so that way helping them could get more effective.

So they're never at that potential crisis point or even like getting to a point where they're just really struggling and no one is willing to help.

I always say that recovery is not just possible, but probable in the right circumstances. We, as family, as friends, as coworkers, as parents, as just people in the community, we have that opportunity and space to help create those circumstances in which people are more likely to get the help they need. And that, to me, speaks to that good side of this conversation and this hopeful aspect to it.

Yes, we can dive into specific policies that might change certain aspects in the systems that would help improve. But that's one piece of this. There's so much more to just how our network, our social network and our communities and our interpersonal relationships and even ourselves can do to start making that change within and be in better positions where people,

If we're ever in a position of facing a mental health challenge or even experiencing mental illness, we're better positioned to manage it and to change it and to support it. So, like, I know a big component for me, and I'm interested in people you've also talked to. Like, there's a big responsibility on my own.

Ever since I'd gotten my diagnosis and went through that experience, like, I have a responsibility to manage that. I do. And if I ever struggle with it, I go to my family, I go to my dad, I go to my girlfriend, I talk to people because I know that I can rely on them or have them be there to support me through it if I'm struggling to manage it myself.

Getting to that point of acceptance for the individual is a very challenging thing. And I wouldn't want anyone to go through such a severe crisis to finally have that awareness of it, but rather to creating completely different circumstances long before that ever happened so that a way they're more likely to accept it initially.
