In this episode Andrew chats with Odile Thiang https://www.mind.org.hk/who-we-are/.
Odile is the lead clinical advisor of the Anti-stigma project through Mind HK.
Odile discusses with Andrew the importance of talking about our mental health recovery experiences, and how that can help reduce the stigma of mental health. She goes on to introduce Mind HK’s destigmatisation campaign ‘More Than A Label’, where everyday Hong-Kongers share their mental health recovery journeys, to help others better understand mental ill health and recovery.
Odile even chaperones Andrew through a quasi role play to begin to give an understanding of how friends can frame a conversation, and the environment, so we can all be of assistance to help those in need when struggling with mental health and assist them to find the right place to support their needs (and that of our own).
This was a really important and informative conversation that needs to be heard in the wake of rising global mental health challenges.
