“I’m going in for a check –up.” Typically we think of check-ups as they relate to our physical health – be it our cholesterol, blood pressure, or weight. We want to take it one step further and encourage you to get a “check up from the neck up.” Coined by Patrick Kennedy, encouraging folks to get a “check up from the neck up” is one of our missions. We want everyone to feel comfortable touching base with how they are feeling.
Take the free, quick and anonymous screening tool, any time. The results will let you know if you may be experiencing some common behavioral health challenges and will offer you resources, too. With May recognized as Mental Health Awareness Month, we have a number of in-person events happening over the next few weeks. Check out our calendar for an event near you. Help yourself, help others and spread the word!/p>
Remember, the tool is just a screening and doesn’t give a diagnosis. It’s important to follow-up with a primary care doctor and/or mental health professional if you are concerned about yourself or a loved one.”
