July is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. In BIPOC communities, stigma around mental health often stops people from seeking help. This stigma can stem from historical experiences, cultural norms and beliefs, misconceptions, and fears of being judged or misunderstood. Break the silence, raise awareness, and empower the voices and lived experiences of BIPOC communities. We are stronger together. 📷 Source: @theshineapp #minoritymentalhealth #minoritymentalhealthmonth #minoritymentalhealthawareness #allmentalhealthmatters
