[COLOR=#1d2129]Hey everyone! I am an RN student graduating this month and for one of my last assignments I have to post to a healthcare/nursing forum and ask a question. One topic that has been on my mind lately is mental health awareness. I’ve come to realize though nursing school that there are many negative perceptions as well discomfort associated with talking about these issues. How do you think that we, as a society can improve mental health awareness and minimize the negative perceptions/discomfort for these people?[/COLOR]
