Since mental health, specifically mental health issues within the work field of mental health care I am showing two videos to demonstrate mental illness is not something to be stigmatized but rather used as a privilege as psychologists to help better their lives and most importantly spread awareness to others and to best aid their patients. 

Video #1

Discusses Canadian mental health advocate who graduated with an honors specializing in psychology from Western University as she speaks out about her clinical depression and how she uses it to her power.

Video #2

Dr. Brian McFerron, who specializes in pediatric gastroenterology  describes how difficult his life was combating OCD before he broke the stigma and got help. 

 

- Although Dr. McFerron is not in the mental health field he is in a similar field where the stigma to seek mental help is frowned upon.
