Learn what signs and symptoms can look like for different people with mental illness.4. How to open or keep the conversation going around mental health and illness with your peers and loved ones.This is not only for people living or supporting someone with mental illness, this is also great general knowledge to better understand mental health + illness in the community and how we can all be part of the conversation + advocacy!
