The month of May is recognized as Mental Health Awareness Month. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, mental disorders are common throughout the United States, affecting tens of millions of people each year. Only a fraction of those affected receive treatment. While ColorBlind Magazine is not a medical publication, the ColorBlind Team believes it’s important to share information about mental health as this is a serious topic.
