  • Grief-Stricken, Triggered, And Overwhelmed? Psychologists Say Do These Two Things

    Data suggests that for every person who dies of COVID-19, they leave behind nine family members. According to HuffPost, that means nearly 2 million people in the US theoretically have experienced the death of a close relative due to the disease. It's easy to be triggered by the news, especially when COVID-19-positive President Donald Trump turns it into a campaign photo op. If you're feeling overwhelmed with grief and frustration, mental health experts encourage taking action. Grieve openly. Reach out to friends and family, and turn off the TV. Know that what you're feeling is natural and normal, and be kind to yourself. If it helps, look for virtual support groups with people going through the same thing or reach out to a mental health professional.

  • Ford’s ‘Dirty Van Art’ raises mental health awareness

    "Ford continues its 'Elephant in the Transit' mental health campaign, using dirty van artist Ruddy Muddy to communicate the message of charity campaign partner, Time to Change. Launched in April, the 'Elephant in the Transit' campaign arose after Ford research identified that over two-thirds (67 per cent) of people said they were more comfortable talking about issues when in a vehicle. A national public awareness film was created, promoting the front seat of a vehicle as a safe space to talk about difficult or personal issues that can affect mental health. Ford's 'Dirty Van Art' Raises Mental Health Awareness The dirty van artwork, which primarily illustrates an elephant in the back of a Ford Transit Custom, features messaging from Time to Change's new campaign, Ask Twice. The Transit Custom will now join Sky's fleet, operating in Central and East London from October 10th, World Mental Health Day."
