Mental health affects everyone regardless of fame, wealth, or status, and finding strength in vulnerability can inspire others to seek help during dark times.
• Metallica's James Hetfield recently shared his mental health struggles during a concert in Brazil
• Setting big goals provides motivation even when facing challenges and doubts from others
• Voices for VoicesⓇ serves as a therapeutic outlet for sharing real experiences and difficult topics
• Money and fame don't protect celebrities from mental health struggles
• Talking about challenges and showing emotion are signs of strength, not weakness
• Many music icons like Chester Bennington, Chris Cornell, and Taylor Hawkins struggled despite success
• Having someone who's experienced similar challenges can make seeking help more comfortable
• Resources like 988 text line and 988lifeline.org provide 24/7 support in English and Spanish
• There's a significant shortage of mental health practitioners that needs addressing
If you're struggling or know someone who is, text 988 or visit 988lifeline.org for 24/7 support. Remember you're not alone – we're all in this together.
