Adman: Breaking the stigma of health

Your friendly Adman community has succumbed to melancholy. He hasn’t shaved in a week; Her mo-faucon withers and she has been dressed in the same superhero dress for two weeks: tracksuit pants and a sweater.

Melbourne’s blocking moment sinks his teeth and throws him savagely into his jaws, like a cougar or even a jaguar. Wait, it’s Adman, so it’s going to have to be a lion. Yes. We’ll pass with a lion.

Adman partnered with Mentally Healthy, who conducted an intellectual activity on advertising and media.

Our industry is well above the national average for staff with poor intellectual health symptoms. A quote from their states; 20% of us have severe symptoms of depression, and 24% have severe symptoms of anxiety. Sensational. We’re a concerned group.

Instead of taking a look at the right type of symptoms, our industry wants to take a look at the cause in detail; the old man, runs down. We publish brochures in the bathrooms about mindfulness, yoga, EAP and how we are ‘people first’. What leads to this kind of comments:

I was a beneficiary of the following. If my manager hadn’t done that, I’d have ended up like a fried, ugly, wrinkled potato. For which, at all times I am very grateful.

The race to the rear goes beyond the individual, as does Rona. So I need to communicate on how to turn stigma around intellectual health. To let you know that depression and anxiety are treatable and surpassable. This isn’t a game, a game, ‘Rona.

I’ve been through this before. Situational depression. Sucks. Take position when you’re excluded from your regimen or when a life-changing occasion occurs. I’m here to give you an allegory, but I need you to think of depression and intellectual fitness in general, like an inflamed wound. The longer you let it get infected, the sicker you get. Discard the old perception of, you’re tough, you can deal with that yourself. Some things you just can’t see that you can’t solve for yourself.

I made an appointment with the doctor for a review of the intellectual aptitude plan, completed an intellectual aptitude plan and the doctor was wonderful about it. He told me that since the beginning of COVID, the rate of creation of intellectual aptitude plans has skyrocketed. 44% of respondents said they had gained some kind of pro-intellectual disease remedy in the past 12 months.

Don’t be ashamed. Adman’s not a shame.

I booked a psychology consultation, finished the saaD-50 and DAAS-42 questionnaire. The consultation went well. We just talked about what’s going on, how I feel. We agreed that checking the worlds, deaths and number of new cases, as well as seeing the arguments on social media, didn’t help. I take a semi-social break on social media, I don’t look at the unexplained death toll and I’m surprised by my sensational news consumption. I’m going to undo it like it’s a nugatory tent.

I need you to leave knowing that intellectual aptitude and intellectual ability are two other things. We live in a continuum of intellectual aptitude, which is like our physical way of coming and going. The worse our situation, the worse our overall fitness can be. However, we have stigmas derived from books, videos and TV shows, which constitute only intellectually serious people. This may force us not to communicate with someone.

I have a wonderful quote from Jenya Holland, batyr logo manager, a social organization and one of UnLtd’s charitable partners: that sums it up perfectly:

“When we run our batyr systems in schools, universities and businesses, we start by asking others to write down all the words that reach the brain with “intellectual aptitude” in the brain. At first, 90% of those words have negative associations – words like “suicide,” “anxiety,” “depression,” “isolation,” etc. Keep in mind that we ask questions about “intellectual fitness” – no poor physical fitness or intellectual illness.

While it’s very important to communicate difficult things like suicide and anxiety, those words don’t give us a complete picture. During the session, we make percentages of stories that break this stigma and our audience perceives that intellectual aptitude exists on a spectrum. At the end of the session, we see a more realistic image of intellectual aptitude, framed in words such as “balance”, “resistance” or “courage”. Words that emphasize the positive and productive things we can do to move across the spectrum. »»

Since I visited the psychologist and followed the suggestions, I felt much calmer and the sadness subsided, like every rainy day.

Adman’s on Facebook, loose to touch me, I’d love to chat.
