Invest in your mental health every day Lindsay Fleming TEDxWilmette

Suicide is the second leading cause of death among people aged 10 to 14. One in five American adults suffers from mental illness each year. It takes on average 10 years from the time symptoms begin to receive accurate diagnosis and care. So while most people wait until their mental health deteriorates to start investing in it, why not start now? What's the worst that could happen? Are you starting to feel better?
Lindsay is widely considered one of the pioneers of modern mental health prevention and destigmatization work on TikTok. She is a licensed therapist, private practice owner, keynote speaker, podcast host, non-profit co-founder, and content creator.

She's not afraid to talk about her own mental health struggles and has empowered her community of over half a million people to start prioritizing their mental health. Her work has been featured in a segment on the Today Show and The New York Times, Vice News, Counseling Today, etc. We all have mental health, what do you do to take care of yours? 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
