Beauty and the Breeze

Ep 18 - Beauty in Bringing Awareness to Mental Health


Listen Later

In this episode, I will be discussing the topic of Mental Health. Being a Nursing Student and working at a hospital has definitely taught me a lot and given me a first hand experience with people that deal with mental illness, as well as an increasing compassion for people that suffer from Mental Illnesses. There’s a lot of things that I will be discussing in this episode including the misconception that mental illness is not a real illness, -unlike physical illnesses- which is highly inaccurate. This podcast is filled with a lot of information that will definitely give listeners a different perspective or a new perspective on mental illness and helping people that deal with mental illness.
