![May is Mental Health Awareness month!
In recognition, I’m revisiting a campaign that I created and shot for @livewellsupport where we connected with people from all walks of life to ask them to share about their experience with depression and what they do to keep their minds healthy and to live well in order to raise awareness, open up conversations, reduce stigma, and group think strategies for managing symptoms and reducing relapses. Over the next few weeks I’ll be sharing some portraits & interviews from the project. LiveWell is currently raising funds to expand its FREE depression support programming online. This time last year, LiveWell shifted its focus to offer online groups (previously only offering in-person groups in Philly), and now serves thousands of individuals from around the country and world! I encourage anyone who needs support to check out their groups, and I encourage everyone who can to consider making a donation to our fundraising campaign to keep our groups FREE and open to the public: linked in bio/link tree!

“In the past, yes I had some [situational] depression. I’ve had some rough patches as a young adult, like a lot of people. I changed my living situation because I didn’t have a support system. I wiped the slate and started again with proper habits to manage- spending more time with my family, doing productive things, exercising, and just being outside.”

Over the next few weeks I’ll be sharing some of this work and the resulting conversations.

This time last year, LiveWell shifted its focus to offer online groups (previously only offering in-person groups in Philly), and now serves thousands of individuals from around the country and world! Personally, I co-created and run our Teens programming, and since starting our online groups last summer, we’ve served hundreds of teens from over 30 states and 10 countries! Super proud to be a part of LiveWell in many capacities and encourage anyone who needs support to check out our groups, and I encourage everyone to consider making a donation to our fundraising campaign to keep our groups FREE and open to the public : linked in bio/link tree!
As for this portrait, this is @p.ricardo.cabral and here are his words:
“I guess so, from time to time I get depressed, for a period, maybe weeks at a time or one month max. When I was younger it used to be more time, maybe [a few] months.
I think depression comes from a lack of capacity to advance or go forward, so I face it like a body/mind warning, a sign that I have to fill my cup with nice things or that I need to trace goals, little goals, like going to the gym, taking classes or making yourself go out and socialize. One of the things that helps me is sports- it’s a big deal for me when i want to get out of depression state.
To do this, I look to myself and my thoughts, acknowledge the state but dont give it importance: I take it as a warning to change something I am not doing so well, like working too much, not being with friends for a long time, not doing sports, not setting goals. I Identify the source of depression and try to take action against it.”
