We can teach mental health the same way we teach physical health, and can use lessons to teach people about brain development, vocabulary, coping skills, healthy relationships, how to help others, and most importantly, how to take care of their minds. As one of the most sought-after mental health speakers in the country, Ross Szabo provides an honest, humorous and relatable approach to mental health. He believes we can teach mental health the same way we teach physical health, and can use lessons to teach people about brain development, vocabulary, coping skills, healthy relationships, how to help others, and most importantly, how to take care of their minds. Ross uses his story with mental health disorders and trauma to help others feel comfortable addressing challenges in their own lives. His talk focuses on the importance of mental health literacy as a way to give people the language they need to truly address mental health the same way they manage their physical health. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
