Episode 2: The Impact of Mental Health (Part 1 of 2)
How do you recognize the differences between mental health and mental illness? Understanding the differences is a key component to maintaining mental health, which like physical health, requires daily attention. Without maintaining mental well-being, we put ourselves at risk of developing a mental illness. In part one of this episode, Kirk and Tiffani discuss the differences between mental health and mental illness, what to do when we are experiencing an “off” day, and how to support those who may be experiencing a mental crisis or mental illness.
Presented by Peace River Center and Southeastern University, Finding Your Balance: A Mental Health Podcast features PRC’s Director of Crisis Response Kirk Fasshauer, and Director of Children’s Services Tiffani Fritzsche. The 20-minute episodes explore topics such as the difference between mental health and mental illness, support for those experiencing mental health challenges, and identifying when someone may need additional mental health support.
