http://www.TransformingStigma.Com In this video, Mike Veny talks about the importance of keeping the subject of mental health in everyday conversation and your community. This is the key to transforming the silence that accompanies mental health stigma.
There’s no right or wrong way to have conversations about mental health. Mike Veny tried an experiment for an entire year. He decided to go around and introduce himself to every single person he met and let them know that he was mentally ill. To his surprise, no one got scared and ran away from him. He actually developed deeper relationships, got hired for more work, and more women showed interest in him than ever before.
Here are some tips for developing your own conversation starters and questions.
1. Recognize that this is an uncomfortable conversation and you don’t have to be an expert to talk about it. If it were an easy conversation, you wouldn’t be watching this video or reading these words. The only way that we, as a society, will develop this into an easy conversation, is to simply have it.
2. Learn healthy, appropriate, respectful, and “people first” vocabulary. This simply means that when you talk about it, put the person before the mental health challenge in your language. For example, avoid saying “the mentally ill”. Instead say, “people who live with a mental illness.”
3. Take the lead by asking others how you can support them and LISTEN! When someone you know is struggling with a mental health challenge, it’s CONFUSING! People who struggle aren’t always looking for answers or to vent. Most of the time they are looking for empathy. Even if you can’t comprehend what someone is struggling with, do your absolute best to see it from their perspective and validate that.

Awkward Conversations in Mental Health
Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how to talk about mental health.
In fact, in this video, I’m going to explain why it’s OK to have awkward conversations and just how to do it.
With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
If you talk about mental health it’s going to feel awkward. Sorry, not sorry. Talking about mental health leads to awkward conversations. That doesn’t mean it’s bad and it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t talk about it. In fact, the more awkward a mental health conversation is, the more effective it is. And, that’s what we need for mental health awareness and to help with things like suicide prevention.
But, I get that as people, we don’t like to feel uncomfortable. We worry about the awkward. But, it’s time to embrace it and get a little awkward. And, in this video I give pointers on how to talk about mental health. Here are some things that you will learn:
Mental health conversation starters that you can use in your everyday life
Why you need to learn how to shut up and listen
Why mental health conversation questions need to be open-ended
What things you should AVOID saying
When you follow the tips that are provided in this video, not only will you become more comfortable talking about mental health in general, but you’ll know how to check up on the loved ones in your life and let them know that you care.
Remember, it’s not just you. Mental health conversations are awkward. Embrace it and go for it!
In short, this video will show you actionable ways to start having more conversations about mental health in 2019.
