January 25th was a huge day for mental health.
It was a day where people were supposed to open up and discuss their mental health challenges, or mental health in general.
The hashtag for the day, if you don't live in Canada, was #bellletstalk.
As I read others experiences online, I found myself sucked into an infinite vortex filled with every possible emotion - happiness, sorrow, horror, empathy and more. I felt comforted to know that I wasn't alone in feeling the way that I sometimes do.
In fact, I felt like part of the majority... for once.
But today as I catch my breath, take a small break from life and read the news (AKA my Facebook feed), I can't help but feel empty.
Why empty?
Empty because nothing has changed. Empty because all of those powerful experiences and stories are STILL THERE today.
Don't get us wrong we think awareness campaigns are great, they bring focus and attention to a problem, and in this case, a serious one that needs to be solved.
They don't, however, solve the problem.
On today's show, we talk about how to end the problem of mental illness (or at least a place to begin that will make a difference).
