I applaud her on the delivery of this speech! As someone who’s dealing with a mental illness, it’s great to see some light shed on how little people talk about it. ❤❤❤
Society veiws mental illness as an excuse to do something bad, but it clearly isn't, it's something out of their control. It's so incredibly sad to see that people on the internet see mental illness as an excuse and treat it like it's nothing. For example, there was a news tiktok about a mom with a mental illness who put her baby's in the stove and killed them, yes that is very wrong but the mom had no control over her brain. The comments on that tiktok were all hate towarded to the mother, but she had a mental illness and acted without intent and without control. It's honestly soo sad 😔
The current values in our society and the kind of negative vacuum that is created artificially leads to mental illness. I had a breakthrough in understanding many things after watching The documentary The IMPACT. I'd love to hear what Ms Heather thinks about this movie. So many factors that were never taken into consideration are described in detail there... Just shocking! The best documentary I've ever seen, heals my wounds and answers a lot of questions
it's painful to see how this video was posted 2 years ago and yet the views can't even reach a thousand or even a million. we must also shed light into the topic of mental health for it affects a lot of people. in line with the world's mental health day, i hope u know that you are valid and you are not alone. even tho i am only a stranger i also do hope that you will win whatever silent battle you have going on inside you. i know you can do it.

To everyone reading this struggling with mental health issues, its going to be alright. You are going to be ok. Don't beat yourself up too much about it. Don't let anyone tell you you lack anything or that you're less than enough.
I have several serious mental and psychosomatic health issues and currently I am in such a bad shape and fail dealing with them that I even might lose my job because of it. At the same time I am afraid to go back to work because after "not functioning any more" for so long like I did before, I could not hide any more. So now my collegues and chefs learned about parts of it. They have to have questions, and I am terrified about their questions, about having to tell, about being treated differently..... In the end the fear of the stigma is added to all the weight and pain of the issues themselves (bringing back the panick attacks I thought I had overcome) and it just never stops hurting even more. That's why yes, I can't agree more that there can't be enough attempts to point these stigmata out in order to fight them.
Hey one suggestion why don't you start working from home . I mean one step can leads to another . I really wish you best for your future and may you accomplish whatever you want from your self and life .😊
It is an interesting topic, thanks to Heather Sarkis for bringing this up. I agree with the speaker that mental health is very stigmatized in our society and honestly, I do not see how it can be changed soon. Mental health looks like an overly complicated issue because it would not be easy to simply “turn off” this stigma in the majority if not all people. I have many stigmas too that would not go away easily and unconsciously I still act on many of them. Heather Sarki brought good point I never thought about how much we bring this stigma to social media, TV, and movies, and misrepresent these horrifying relationships between mental illnesses and craziness, violence, and aggression. And it is hard to believe we are ever going to stop making these kinds of movies. It is sad that this is part of our entertainment while some people suffer watching it because they see themselves as “crazy monsters,” convinced that this is how other people see them. This is a misinterpretation of the issue and leads us to the wrong judgment of others, fear them and turn our backs on them. Everybody has the right to seek good health for themselves, but I understand why sometimes people would be afraid to go to the doctor and talk about their mental problems because they don’t want extra emotional pressure from feelings that the doctor might judge them. I am a second-year medical student, and we learned about how complicated the brain is. At the same time, science has stepped forward a great deal and most mental issues can be taken care of, now we can help people with various mental illnesses and give them hope to get their life back, improve their quality, and enjoy every moment of it. When doctors can show that they care with sincerity about patients' mental health and invite patients to be open and trustful, the patients can overcome their fear and be able to receive the care they need. Hopefully, their good examples can be shared with friends and family who also can get the courage to ask for help. And the same can be done with doctors, who can share their skills and experiences on how not to be judgmental and how to invite patients to be open. This is important that we address this issue because like the speaker said the number of cases does not become smaller, they are growing. I also liked the suggestion that we need to learn to look at the person and not accentuate our attention on their diagnosis, in the end, we are all not so different and we never know if or when a similar problem can happen to us, taking away from us our happy place.
She sounds like she's about to cry. I always feel like crying when I talk abt my mental health so I'd rather not talk abt it to ppl who won't understand bc it makes me even more sad.
A lot of people, young & old, are incarcerated because of choices and behaviors demonstrated while battling against undiagnosed & untreated mental illness ...
I would really like to hear the reasons of those 15 people who have disliked this video.. Would love to explore their model as to why they rejected this thought provoking video..

I've had conversations about this with older people. People aged 45 to 60's don't quite understand mental health or the simple common conditions/disorders. I dont understand bipolar because my emotions don't do that so I'm confused how they change so quickly. And schizophrenia don't understand never met anyone with it and not common. Hallucinations don't understand people with those. I understand panic disorder best and those symptoms from what I've experienced. Dropping stigma and false info around health for vulnerable people whether young adults or old, children mental illness/common anxiety disorder is tough to get through the day sometimes if high functioning
Seriously people act as if I am the monster no I am fighting him, even my mom thought this a bit although I think she just meant that is how others would treat me, not that it would be right
Yeah, I do agree. Mental Health needs to talk more often and need the stigmatisation to stop. It also can kill many people who may are told that "you need to shut up and suffer that person's consequences". Is this a right approach??? I also believe the silent treatment needs to stop. There needs to be more open conversations to groups, and other places that need to have open discussions about what is happening in the family or just yourself or just wanting to talk openly about what is happening in your life without judging others. Matt
I agree with everything you said is fact based for anxiety disorders that are common. Like panic disorder like I expeirence. Easily treatable once identified because it's very common and many people experience panic attacks. This doesn't mean they understand the triggers, worries, fears leading to it. Or some people's suicidal thoughts with the same disorder I have. Misconceptions and stigma are the problems in society. Youth who experience this have it even worse I'm already discriminated against for being young. Hostile or excessive sarcasam people who are abusive might not even realize there causing an issue. Some sarcasam is funny but with mental health it's not so funny.
Every single psychiatric label stigmatizes the person being labeled and as long as we continue to use psychiatric labels (contained within the DSM) to describe behaviors, psychiatry will continue to profit while the public suffers. No psychiatric label, no billing insurance. No psychiatric label, no drug prescribed. So until we stop using these psychiatric labels, which mean nothing other than what some psychiatrists decided was a mental “illness,” we will never stop the “stigma.” The psychiatric labels are backed by corporate interests not medicine, and not science.
I find it inaccurate to call mental health conditions illnesses. The problems people go through aren’t sicknesses to be resolved purely with medication. In my personal opinion, medication is of negligible importance for many of these so called “mental disorders” or “mental illnesses”. Don’t misinterpret what I say: these issues are real and of extremely significant importance. However, the way these issues are treated are mainly with coping strategies and medications. This does not solve any of these issues at all! To resolve any problem, the problem in question must be resolved at the source. For some people, this is caused by trauma. For some people this is caused by physical health or unhappiness with their jobs. Now, there are as many individual mental situations as there are people in the world. In order to resolve problems, we must look beyond simply coping with “illness”. I believe that the stigma is partially css as used by calling these individualized mental health issues “illnesses” in the first place. This stigma is definitely counterproductive for resolving any of these issues that should be in question. Sadly, almost none of the sources of these conditions are thought about clearly enough to see resolutions. Now, instances for recovery do exist. For every issue there are multiple different solutions that take different approaches and lengths of time to treat. For instance, someone who has experienced a violent traumatic event, or multiple, may take a much longer amount of time to treat. Conversely, someone whom’s depression is caused by being slightly overweight could see potential resolution after dieting and exercising for long enough. These issues are, for some, the causes of their problems. However, modern psychiatric care would have you believe that these conditions need to be treated primarily with psychiatric medicines. The statistics for how well these medicines work is definitely skewed in favor of the medicines, because the people conducting the surveys usually work those industries which are modeled around selling these medications. They usually specify that mental illnesses can’t be cured at all and that all we can do is cope and continue to take medicines. This entire industry is, in my opinion, very deeply misguided. The medicines don’t help very much for a very large number of people. The idea that one’s life problems can be resolved with medications at all is very ridiculous. I view the the vast majority of the pharmaceutical psychological medications industry to be a largely functioning scheme for making money with products that DON’T REALLY do anything very helpful. I say again: to solve any issue or problem it must be resolved at the source. For every individual these sources are caused by different and mostly/partially unique situations. So in order to properly resolve any of these situations we must take a somewhat different approach. It is likely best to start with learning to cope, but this does not actually fix any of the problems we live with at the respective sources.
...Sure, I've been traumatized, but to the degree that my brain chemistry seems to have been been totally thrown out of whack. Trauma literally changes brain function, and it may not ever change back. It's damage. I view meds as the same as a walker or a wheelchair. You wouldn't be telling a paraplegic they needed to get over the use of their wheelchair, and could if they more thoroughly resolved the car wreck they had their spinal cord injury in. Ok?
Wrong! Medication is often a great assistance while seeking other modalities of therapy. You wouldn't take insulin away from a diabetic, would you? Why take away a med that helps with brain chemistry?
To everyone who's struggling right now, please know that GOD LOVES YOU. He wants to help you and give you peace. Please surrender your burdens to Him and allow Him to move in your life.
Even if You suffered from seasonal depression now completely cured! try to get a job those monsters will try to stigmatize you so you will get isolated and die IT IS SOCIETY'S FAULT
Haven’t watched the speech and suspect it’s another overprivliged person discussing their anxiety and depression. Never OCD or schizophrenia. Also, the high rate of mental illness is based on big pharma .
Stigmatizing is not the problem in mental health rather diagnosing people with fictitious disorders and treating what doesn't exist is the issue. How do you treat Jerusalem Syndrome?...😂🤣😂
Jerusalem Syndrome is not recognized as a legitimate psychological disorder in the DSM-5, a widely used system for classifying psychological disorders. And when I say "used" I'm referring to psychiatrists and medical practitioners. So, technically, nobody is treated for "Jerusalem Syndrome" specifically. But Jerusalem Syndrome, whether a real disorder or not, does cause psychosis, which is, in fact, real. This means it causes hallucinations, delusions, and a loss of touch with reality. Israeli psychiatrist Yair Bar-El co-wrote a paper for the British Journal of Psychiatry in 2000 which stated most people who experienced this had underlying mental illnesses such as schizophrenia or personality disorder. For those who seemed mentally healthy beforehand, I'd say the cause probably has something to do with genes for these mental disorders being triggered by the religious endeavor (meaning that the individual had a hereditary gene for potential symptoms of psychosis that was triggered into expression by the experience). Counseling and medicine can help these people get back in touch with reality. With that being said, I see where you're coming from, but the stigma surrounding mental illness is actually very harmful to those with real psychological disorders who need help, and to assume they are fictitious is just as bad. So, leave the diagnosis of disorders to the medical professionals, and take their word for it if they say someone is mentally ill. Assuming someone can just snap out of it is part of the problem.
@@monopoly855 So, you believe in Jerusalem syndrome and perhaps Paris syndrome. Anyway, is any of the so-called disorders evidence based? Can it be scientifically proven? If you take the same symptoms to different psychiatrists, you will surely get different diagnosis, that's pure junk science. Psychiatrists purely adopt guesswork in their diagnosis. How do you diagnose based on subjective data? It's more absurd when "normal" is being medicated. Take a look at ADHD in kids. In my culture, no school kid, I reiterate, no school kid has ever been diagnosed with such fallacious disorder. In the western world, discipline is not instilled in school neither is it at home. Once children starts misbehaving, they're labelled with all kinds of a fallacious disorders especially ADHD. The worst part is this kids are placed on medications particularly Ritalin which only transform them to zombies. Most times with psychmeds, when the adverse effects sets in, the psychiatrist will either increase/decrease the dose or change your meds brand. This process continues until the patient is completely ruined because they never need that poison in the first place. Pediatric bipolar, Mathematics disorder, Internet gaming disorder, Foreign accent disorder and a whole lot of others are just fictitious. We are waiting for Physics, chemistry, biology, social studies, Swahili disorder and fetus bipolar....It's crazy.
@@dapoodusanya1232 this is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read. Of course there is underlying scientific evidence for different mental illnesses, ADHD included. If you look at the differing MRI scans between someone that does not have a diagnosis of ADHD and someone who does have ADHD, there has been differences shown in the structure of their brains, as well as differences in the way in which the brain transmits neuronal messages. If you truly believe that the reason why there is less diagnosed mental illnesses in the East is a direct result of parenting styles and 'strictness' you are contributing to the stigma. If what you are saying is the case, the suicide rates in the east would be non-existent. But this isn't the case - so mental illnesses do exist. Psychiatrists do not make any diagnosis quickly. They take a look at a wide range of behaviours and evidence and then see if it fits a diagnostic criteria. Whilst it is easier to diagnose physical illnesses, mental illnesses do still exist, and you cannot undermine that. To say that they are fictitious is an insult to the millions of people that suffer with mental illnesses on a daily basis. I sure hope that you never have to battle with the thoughts of wishing you were dead because it seems more appealing than having to bear another moment on this earth that is full of confusion, destruction and corruption.
idk why you find this funny but ur point kinda makes sense. Stigma IS a large problem in manyyyyy communities, but i am reading a book about how the Psychiatry industry has made a profit off of medicalising normal human behaviour (it’s called Cracked by James Davies). But yes some behaviours should not be pushed as conditions though that doesn’t mean real legitimate disorders like depression and schizophrenia dont exist
Don't feel shame. Everyone deserves to be happy, receive help and to recover. You cannot beat mental health illnesses on your own. Receiving help from a professional will help guide you using safe practices and tools. 🥰😘🌈💜💚🌍🙏✝️♥️🖤💗💙🤎🤍

Israeli psychiatrist Yair Bar-El co-wrote a paper for the British Journal of Psychiatry in 2000 which stated most people who experienced this had underlying mental illnesses such as schizophrenia or personality disorder. For those who seemed mentally healthy beforehand, I'd say the cause probably has something to do with genes for these mental disorders being triggered by the religious endeavor (meaning that the individual had a hereditary gene for potential symptoms of psychosis that was triggered into expression by the experience). Counseling and medicine can help these people get back in touch with reality.
With that being said, I see where you're coming from, but the stigma surrounding mental illness is actually very harmful to those with real psychological disorders who need help, and to assume they are fictitious is just as bad. So, leave the diagnosis of disorders to the medical professionals, and take their word for it if they say someone is mentally ill. Assuming someone can just snap out of it is part of the problem.
@@monopoly855 So, you believe in Jerusalem syndrome and perhaps Paris syndrome. Anyway, is any of the so-called disorders evidence based? Can it be scientifically proven? If you take the same symptoms to different psychiatrists, you will surely get different diagnosis, that's pure junk science. Psychiatrists purely adopt guesswork in their diagnosis. How do you diagnose based on subjective data? It's more absurd when "normal" is being medicated. Take a look at ADHD in kids. In my culture, no school kid, I reiterate, no school kid has ever been diagnosed with such fallacious disorder. In the western world, discipline is not instilled in school neither is it at home. Once children starts misbehaving, they're labelled with all kinds of a fallacious disorders especially ADHD. The worst part is this kids are placed on medications particularly Ritalin which only transform them to zombies. Most times with psychmeds, when the adverse effects sets in, the psychiatrist will either increase/decrease the dose or change your meds brand. This process continues until the patient is completely ruined because they never need that poison in the first place. Pediatric bipolar, Mathematics disorder, Internet gaming disorder, Foreign accent disorder and a whole lot of others are just fictitious. We are waiting for Physics, chemistry, biology, social studies, Swahili disorder and fetus bipolar....It's crazy.
@@dapoodusanya1232 this is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read. Of course there is underlying scientific evidence for different mental illnesses, ADHD included. If you look at the differing MRI scans between someone that does not have a diagnosis of ADHD and someone who does have ADHD, there has been differences shown in the structure of their brains, as well as differences in the way in which the brain transmits neuronal messages.
If you truly believe that the reason why there is less diagnosed mental illnesses in the East is a direct result of parenting styles and 'strictness' you are contributing to the stigma. If what you are saying is the case, the suicide rates in the east would be non-existent. But this isn't the case - so mental illnesses do exist.
Psychiatrists do not make any diagnosis quickly. They take a look at a wide range of behaviours and evidence and then see if it fits a diagnostic criteria. Whilst it is easier to diagnose physical illnesses, mental illnesses do still exist, and you cannot undermine that. To say that they are fictitious is an insult to the millions of people that suffer with mental illnesses on a daily basis.
I sure hope that you never have to battle with the thoughts of wishing you were dead because it seems more appealing than having to bear another moment on this earth that is full of confusion, destruction and corruption.
idk why you find this funny but ur point kinda makes sense. Stigma IS a large problem in manyyyyy communities, but i am reading a book about how the Psychiatry industry has made a profit off of medicalising normal human behaviour (it’s called Cracked by James Davies). But yes some behaviours should not be pushed as conditions though that doesn’t mean real legitimate disorders like depression and schizophrenia dont exist
Maybe they should start by giving drug test for each person with mental illness.
Don't feel shame. Everyone deserves to be happy, receive help and to recover. You cannot beat mental health illnesses on your own. Receiving help from a professional will help guide you using safe practices and tools. 🥰😘🌈💜💚🌍🙏✝️♥️🖤💗💙🤎🤍
