I've suffered from depression for about five years now. The whole stigma about mental health and how people are scared to talk about it, scared to share their feelings. But I don't know how to deal with it. I don't think a lot of people know how to deal with it, and they should be able to express their feelings, their thoughts and everything a safe environment with constructive feedback to help them get better. Temple has mental health, mental health facilities, but they're not really that well broadcasted or advertised. I finally went to Temple Health Mental Health Services saw it. I went to get guidance and everything and helped a lot. I wish I had done it sooner, but really made me do it is because some of refreshment professional athletes MBA, Kevin Love and Mark DeRozan came out talked about their mental health and it humanized them, and it made me feel comfortable with who I am, and it made me want to talk about it. It's with someone because I'm seeing these two people who I see on national television every other night, talk about something that I'm afflicted with. I'm hoping that in the future more people can feel comfortable talking about it.
