United Way of York County’s mission is to build a stronger, caring community by cultivating financial generosity, volunteerism and advocacy. They are connecting people in need with programs that help, focusing on education, health and financial stability.
United Way is kicked off York county’s largest annual fundraising campaign on August 30. They welcomed, leading mental health speaker, Mike Veny to share his experiences in addressing and erasing the stigma around mental illness. Guests also heard from a panel of local mental health experts at this free event.
“You look at people all the time and think they have their stuff together, but so many people are struggling. We had, I think, over 70 suicides here in York County in 2017,” Veny said.
That’s why United Way officials felt like it was time to turn the focus on getting York County residents the help they need by raising money for partner agencies that deal with mental health.
“It shouldn’t be a special subject that we talk about. We should talk about it in a normal voice, the same way we do allergies. If you think about it, people talk about mental health in a very low voice. They want to keep it private. We’re the problem at that point,” Veny said.

http://www.TransformingStigma.Com In this video, Mike Veny details the birth of Transforming Stigma™. This short speech was recorded as part of a panel on overcoming challenges at the 2014 National Collegiate Entrepreneurs Organization (C-E-O) Conference at the Hyatt Grand Cypress in Orlando, Florida.
First, Mike shares about filing bankruptcy in 2005 and building a career as a drummer after that. Then in 2011, Mike had a mental health breakdown. After reaching out to a friend from the New York State Department of Mental Health for help, she responded with an invitation for him to speak at her conference.
After that first speech, Mike was traveling around the country within a few months, opening up mental health conferences as a keynote speaker. Transforming Stigma™ was born. In the spirit of overcoming challenges, Mike reminds us that sometimes our biggest challenges are our greatest opportunities. Sometimes that thing that you are struggling with can inspire the perfect business idea. The key is being aware and open to it.
Entrepreneurship was always in Mike’s blood, but he never would have thought he’d be marketing the toughest thing of all – his own issues. Although, he never dreamed of being a mental health speaker (who does?), Mike is honored to do this work to help others who are like him. Mike knows what it’s like to feel a lost sense of hope. Mike knows what it’s like to feel pain. Mike knows what it’s like to be scared. This is why he does this work in mental health.
Your greatest challenges can be your greatest opportunities.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Reassurance

http://www.TransformingStigma.com As a person who has struggled with obsessive-compulsive disorder for his entire life, Mike Veny shares some strategies and mindset changes that given him some reassurance. To illustrate how obsessive-compulsive disorder affects his life, he does two things:
* He obsesses over things, real or imagined, to a point where he cannot focus on work and relationships with other people. Sometimes it can be a song, a conversation he had with someone, an insecurity, or a sexual fantasy.
* He has certain rituals and routines that have become so automatic and habitual, that he doesn’t even notice them. For example, whenever he goes to the bathroom at home and washes his hands, he then reaches for his toothbrush and begins brushing his teeth. Towards the end of the day, he may or may not come to the realization about how many times he has brushed my teeth that day. And yes, brushing your teeth too much is just as much of a problem as not brushing your teeth enough.
One of the strategies that he has used to cope with this mental health challenge is to hack it and use it for his own good. In fact, this is a strategy that he has used to cope with all of his mental health challenges.
In the case of obsessive-compulsive disorder, he chose to not look at it as a liability, but as a strength. If he obsessed over the right things, like an upcoming presentation or music that he has to memorize, then he will be successfully prepared to present and perform. Also, if he chose to focus on habits that would help him become more successful, he could cultivate healthier routines and rituals in my life.
One of the tools that has truly help Mike Veny’s recovery is the use of checklist software.
Another tool that I learned to use successfully is visualization.
Although he has come a long way, he still has a long way to go. Watch this video for some obsessive compulsive disorder reassurance. And any additional ideas, tips, strategies, tools, and resources are welcome.
