Mental Health Cafe – January Edition

Mental Health Cafe is a monthly community conversation on mental health and mental illness over coffee and treats. The event will focus on informal discussions and friendly peer support in a welcoming space for all. People are invited to participate actively or passively, or just listen.

In order to ease discussion, each month will have a specific theme to start off the discussion. Then we’ll go wherever the conversation leads us! 🙂

January’s Theme: Identity
[Some Questions to Ponder] Who are you? How do you define yourself?
Do you define yourself based on your mental health / mental illness?
Have you redefined yourself after a mental health or physical health diagnosis, major life event, or traumatic event?
Have you experienced stigma associated with redefining yourself or changing your identity?

Inside Our Minds builds collective community narratives on mental health and mental illness in Pittsburgh. Inside Our Minds is a project of New Sun Rising.
