Cori’s message comes during Mental Health Awareness Month, and the theme this year is “You Are Not Alone.” The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) writes that the:
“You are Not Alone” campaign features the lived experience of people affected by mental illness to fight stigma, inspire others and educate the broader public. Now more than ever before, it is important for the mental health community to come together and show the world that no one should ever feel alone. The campaign builds connection and increases awareness with the digital tools that make connection possible during a climate of physical distancing. Even in times of uncertainty, the NAMI community is always here, reminding everyone that you are not alone.
Per Northstar Transitions, “One in five or nearly 50 million adults in the United States experience a mental health disorder in a given year. One in 25 adults faces a severe mental illness each year.Of the 47.6 million adults living with mental illness, a significant portion also has an alcohol or substance use disorder. Conversely, more than half of people living addiction have a co-occurring mental illness.”
