Bebe Moore Campbell was a fearless mental health advocate and literary trailblazer who used her words and platform to address the impacts of racism, mental health, culture, and community. This #BlackHistoryMonth, we honor and remember her legacy as well as other Black pioneers who helped shape the #MentalHealth landscape. Learn more about their contributions: https://lnkd.in/dPDdCfR

Schizophrenia is a brain disorder that distorts the way a person thinks, feels, and behaves. While current antipsychotic therapies can help treat some symptoms, such as hallucinations and delusions, they may not fully address symptoms such as memory impairment, decision-making, and the ability to enjoy life – leading to low treatment adherence. Learn more about our commitment to addressing these needs: https://lnkd.in/gmN8ykmx 

Signs and symptoms of #schizophrenia are not “one size fits all.” Schizophrenia symptoms can differ from person to person, but they generally fall into three categories. Learn more about them here: https://lnkd.in/gmN8ykmx 

Wishing you #HappyHolidays from all of us at Karuna! May you find peace and enjoy the company of your loved ones during this season.
