    lets talk about the active minds ice bucket challenge...

    The Ice Bucket Challenge is back—but this time, it’s for mental health. In this episode, I take a closer look at the #speakyourmind challenge and why it’s not sitting right with me or many others who have experienced the deep, messy reality of mental illness and suicide loss. While the campaign has raised some funds and visibility, it also raises bigger questions: Who is this really for? Is it advocacy or just another viral moment? And what does real mental health support actually look like? If you’ve ever felt disheartened by the way mental health is handled on social media, this one’s for you. *************************************************************** Find Madison 🖤 Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Maadthreads Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maadthreads/ https://www.instagram.com/andalsopod/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7u5WJfJE4f8ZxWKalFdbe2?si=df09bef0a013449b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/and-also/id1719653908 Email Inquiries: madisonrmedia@gmail.com ***************************************************************** Resources: grief survival guide (books, podcasts, & more!): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rbjojrt5PYtwj0E4wu9NJC2VcztScC3YMoRAxxsGELg/edit?usp=sharing If you are struggling with suicide loss or ideation, visit https://samaritansnyc.org/coping-with-suicide-loss/ For more information about Schizophrenia and ways you can get involved/donate: https://sczaction.org Diagnosed with Schizophrenia & not sure what to do next?: https://sczaction.org/diagnosed-person-resources/ NATIONAL SEXUAL ASSAULT HOTLINE: 1-800-656-HOPE (4673) Chat option available at rainn.org.
