May is Mental Health Awareness Month, shedding light on the fact that nearly 60 million US adults, or one in five, grapple with mental illness each year. Former Congressman Patrick Kennedy has delved into the topic in his new book, 'Profiles in Mental Health Courage,' where he shares stories of individuals navigating mental health challenges.
Kennedy emphasizes the importance of understanding the diverse journeys people undertake in dealing with mental health issues. He notes that while there is less stigma surrounding mental health discussions today, there remains a lack of in-depth understanding of how these conditions truly impact individuals' lives.
