http://www.TransformingStigma.com/programs When most people think of a ‘civil rights movement’, they immediately think of the Civil Rights Movement that took place in the United States of America between 1954 and 1968. Rosa Parks is considered by many to be the the mother of the Civil Rights Movement because of her refusal to give up her seat on a segregated bus.
There is a new Civil Rights Movement happening in the United States of America. It’s the Mental Illness Civil Rights Movement. In this country, as in many other countries, a stigma exists when it comes to mental health. Mike Veny, a mental health guest motivational speaker says that stigma includes “stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination”.
The Mental Illness Civil Rights Movement is centered around discrimination. This typically includes job discrimination and housing discrimination – complete violations of one’s Civil Rights.
In a Huffington Post article from 2013 titled, “Mental Illness as a Civil Rights Issue”, author Paul Heroux offers four potential solutions.
* Increasing investment in community mental health programs.
* Increasing public awareness campaigns that address mental health stigma.
* Increasing police training in mental health.
* Increasing civil rights legislation and protection for people with mental illness.
Mental illness discrimination is a challenge in other places, too. During a recent trip to Bermuda where Mike Veny was hired by the Bermuda Mental Health Foundation to deliver his “Transforming Stigma into Strength” presentation, he learned about some of the challenges with mental illness discrimination in Bermuda.
According to attorney Michael Hanson, The Human Rights Commission in Bermuda had 11 complaints about mental illness discrimination in 2014. Because of outdated laws, the 11 people had NO PROTECTION under the law. Government officials in Bermuda have committed to addressing it this Fall.
Whether it’s Bermuda or the United States, the mental illness discussion is a civil rights movement that will help everyone thrive.

Understanding the Self Care Definition vs Escapism
Self-care is a popular buzzword these days, but do you really know what it means? Understanding the self care definition is important for your mental health.
In this video, I give a very specific example of the difference between self-care and escapism from a conference that I was attending as a mental health speaker in the past.
There are several common behaviors that people think qualify as self care but they’re actually escape behaviors. Escapism activities are not the same as self care and do not provide the same benefits for your mental health and personal development as self-care. But lots of people turn to these behaviors as a form of stress relief. This is why understanding the difference between the two is key to helping you learn how to do self-care in a way that works in your life.
