In this thought-provoking episode of the Otterpod, we tackle the important topic of mental health stigma. Listen in as we discuss misconceptions, Munchausen's syndrome, and the impact of society and the internet on our mental health. We explore the challenges faced by those with mental health issues, particularly when it comes to seeking help, and the consequences of stigmatizing language and attitudes.

We also share our own experiences and perspectives on breaking the stigma surrounding mental health. Learn about the importance of therapy, medication, and self-care, as well as the unique challenges faced by individuals with Down syndrome and other conditions. We emphasize the power of speaking up for those who may not have the confidence to do so themselves, and the importance of fostering understanding, acceptance, and support in our communities. Join us for this essential conversation on mental health and the need for change.
