ID : 18916   
« back to classes page
One in five American adults experiences a mental health disorder in a year, and almost half of all American adults will experience a mental illness during their lifetime. Mental Health First Aid teaches how to recognize signs of mental health or substance use challenges in adults ages 18 and older, offer and provide initial help, and guide a person toward appropriate care if necessary. Topics covered include anxiety, depression, psychosis, and addictions. You will learn how to address common mental health concerns encountered by adults; reduce stigmas about mental health; learn strategies to help family members, friends, and peers recognize the signs and symptoms of mental health and substance use challenges; and use self-help strategies for staying mentally well.
