Unfortunately stigma still surrounds mental health. Some common myths include: 

  1. Myth: Mental health is a sign of weakness
  2. Myth: Mental health is rare
  3. Myth: Medication is the only effective treatment for mental illness 
  4. Myth: You can’t recover from mental illness

It’s important to remember that mental illness is a medical condition, just like any other and treatment can be highly effective.
