Mental Health Philosophy

Mental Health is a slightly older term to distinguish Physical Health (biology) from behavioral, trauma-response, and crisis behaviors that originate with cognitively and/behaviorally before manifesting biologically (if ever). The umbrella term is more specifically replaced currently with trauma-informed care, behavioral health, crisis and emergency response, active shooter protocols, and safety plans to name a few of the interventions in specific populations and situations.

Stigma is created (is the result) of fear at a basic level of the human condition. We do not want to admit or risk that we are not models of health, prosperity, and goodness. We deny, dismiss, or demonize information that suggests that we need something more than what we have. For individuals needing some form of help, it is easier to stigmatize them rather than admit that our community needs change. We sometimes need help both individually and collectively. The key to overcoming is to realize that, together, we can forge new coalitions, interventions, and habits of health.

Stigma is maintained by a lack of awareness/information, a need to complete a job (e.g. law enforcement) as efficiently as possible, and a need for communities to appear “normal” and unimpacted by illness. For example, some communities bus away their homeless population prior to community events in order to be perceived as more “healthy.” Interventions like “100 Resilient Cities” can help to address this stigma on a large community-by-community scale.
