May is Mental Health Awareness Month
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mental Health Awareness MonthMental Health Awareness Month was established in 1949 to increase awareness of the importance of mental health and wellness in Americans’ lives and to celebrate recovery from mental illness. For the past 20 years, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has recognized Mental Health Awareness Month (MHAM) every May to increase awareness about the vital role mental health plays in our overall health and well-being.
Mental Health Awareness Month Toolkit
Check out what SAMHSA is doing and share our materials, and remember that we all play active roles in caring for our mental health. To access the tool kit click here.
Concerned that you or a loved one may be experiencing mental illness? You are not alone. Get professional help. Mental health is an important part of overall health and well-being, yet mental illness affects millions of people and their families nationwide. Know that treatment for mental illness is effective—and help is a phone call away.

Mental Illness Is Common, But Too Often Not Treated. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, about one in five adults had a mental illness. Without a doubt, the pandemic has affected the state of mental health in our country and made mental illness even more common. It is rare that a family is not touched by a mental health condition, one that can interfere with your or a loved one’s ability to work, sleep, eat, and enjoy life.
Mental health disorders include anxiety, depression, seasonal affective disorder, or more serious illnesses as bipolar disorder, major depression, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and more. Unfortunately, most people with mental illness do not receive mental health services that they need.
-
People with mental illness can have symptoms that include a range of feelings, emotions, or experiences, including:
-
Shifts in mood
-
Sadness
-
Anxiety
-
Irritability
-
Low energy
-
Delusions
-
Hallucinations
-
Sleep problems
-
Mental illness is not always easy to detect. Someone does not need to have all these symptoms, perhaps just one or two.
Treating a mental illness is not something to attempt on your own. Like many health conditions, help for mental illness takes professional diagnosis and treatment.
Download the audio and video files for "Can't Be Seen."
Treatment Works, Treatment is Available
The good news: Research shows treatment for mental illness works. With appropriate treatment, people can manage their illness, overcome challenges, and lead productive lives.
Treatment for mental illness is effective. Mental health services also are covered by most health plans—by law. And like physical health conditions, it’s clear the earlier you get treatment for mental illness, the better—and the better you or your loved one will feel and do.
