On October 10th, World Mental Health Day is observed across the globe, and in small communities. The World Health Organization (WHO) set this year's theme as "Mental health care for all: let’s make it a reality", which speaks to systemic inequalities for those affected by mental illness and an urgent need to change the status quo. NAMI has long been advocating for "Mental health for all" - the theme for our NAMIWalks NJ, where CAMHOP team walked and raised awareness and funds to support our free services to the communities and advocacy efforts. We will not stop working and walking, until all can receive quality mental health care that they need and deserve. You are not alone!
10月10日是世界精神衛生日。世界衛生組織 (WHO) 將今年的主題定為“讓人人享有精神衛生保健成為現實”，這個主題表明受精神疾病影響的人們面對著精神衛生醫療系統上的不平等，該現狀迫切需要改變。 NAMI 長期以來一直倡導“人人應當享有心理健康”——這是我們 NAMIWalks NJ 的主題，CAMHOP 團隊多年來參與健步行，提高社區的精神健康意識和資金以支持我們為社區提供的免費服務和維權倡導工作。我們會一如既往地努力，發聲倡權，直到所有人都能獲得他們需要和應得的優質心理健康護理的那天。你不孤單！

對患病家人那不回應、不合作的態度，你是不是感到憤怒、沮喪?
是不是經常懊惱，自己不知道如何與他們交流、相處才好?

為了不讓言語成為我們關係的障礙，我們要重新學習說話的藝術。
CAMHOP邀請您來聽家屬支持會義工Ming分享如何與患病家人溝通。

在亞裔美國社區收集帽子和消除汙名
|
|
Nao Gamo is a neuroscientist and entrepreneur who speaks about living with bipolar disorder. While experiencing an episode of mania, she ended up accumulating an expansive collection of hats. Her experience led to her wanting to educate about how mental illness can manifest uniquely in people and that there is nothing to be ashamed of, particularly within the AAPI community. Nao Gamo是一位神經科學家和企業家，她談到了雙相情感障礙患者的生活。在經歷了一段狂躁期後，她最終收集了大量的帽子。她的經歷讓她想要教育人們，精神疾病是如何在人身上獨特地表現出來的，這並沒有什麼可羞愧的，尤其是在AAPI社區內。

聆聽真實的人生，成為真正的關懷者
你聽過所謂的「雙極性情緒障礙」嗎？醫療如此發達的現在，依然有這麼一群人為憂鬱症、躁鬱症所苦。他們飽受生理的病痛和心理的折磨，以及周圍的人不了解甚至不諒解的眼光。我們習以為常的健康，卻是他們的奢望。別讓誤解和歧視遮蔽你的雙眼，讓奕辰來告訴你，身為憂鬱症與躁鬱症患者的故事，了解他們內心深處的痛苦與孤獨！

李崇建老師談與孩子有效溝通的方式，通過生命體與生命體的直接對話，來達到自律自重與自愛。他引用薩提亞家庭治療中提出的“人為求生存所衍生的四種應對模式：指責、討好、超理智及打岔。指出我們需要關注與孩子對話的姿態——內在的安靜與關注，外在肢體的放鬆及說話的語態等。

Decolonizing Mental Health is part of a multi-platform initiative from GBH that includes the four-hour “Mysteries of Mental Illness” docuseries on PBS tracing the evolution of the complex topic of mental health from its earliest days to present times. Through 20 profiles, the digital series discusses what a more responsive mental health care system should look like. We would like to highlight for you the following episodes on AAPI communities:
Paul Hoang: Paul Hoang 是一名臨床社會工作者，他經營著一個心理學研究所。他經歷過創傷後壓力綜合症和抑鬱症，是伊利諾伊州唯一一位講越南語的臨床醫生。現在他在加利福尼亞州用越南語創作了關於心理健康的公共電視節目。在一個對心理健康倖存者幾乎沒有同情心的文化中，Hoang 正在建立一個關懷和同情的詞彙。
Kelvin Nguyen: 當 Kelvin Nguyen 處理心理健康危機時，他的家人打電話給警察尋求幫助。心理健康不是犯罪，他也不是罪犯。今天，通過 VietCare機構, Nguyen 教育和輔導像他這樣的人克服社會禁忌、摒棄羞恥感並尋求心理健康協助。在治療的幫助下，他很高興能夠在幫助他人的同時踏上自我實現的旅程。
Linh An: 美國精神保健系統的語言是英語和大量行話，這會自動拋棄不會說這種語言的人。人類學家 Linh An 斷言，這是一種暴力的種族主義行為，剝奪了移民社區應得的醫療保健。在審視其固有的種族主義時，一個具有文化競爭力的醫療保健系統需要超越黑人和白人的二元對立，並為所有人服務。
Linh An and Sharyn Luo: 為什麼醫療緊急情況允許家庭成員進入急診室，而精神健康緊急情況則將患者單獨排除在外？在亞裔社區，家庭是社會關係的核心，完全可以避免的污名使家庭與醫療保健系統發生衝突。精神健康的污名疫情只能通過社會和家庭解決方案來解決。
