Today I interviewed Ross Szabo for The Mighty. Ross is one of the "OG" mental health advocates and pretty much helped shape how mental health is thought of in the United States. This is the second time I’ve interviewed Ross (here's the first time) but I felt like we were able to dive deeper into his views on mental health education and programs. Although Ross sees a lot of issues with current implementations he does offer practical and effective solutions. I also liked his response when I asked “what makes a bad mental health advocate?” Ross is a hell of a nice guy who gives a lot back to the community. I’m certain him and I will work together again in the near future.

I also host a monthly panel discussion for The Mighty with the leading mental health advocates in the world. I previously hosted SPSM Chat - Suicide Prevention Social Media where I led lively discussions with various experts in the field of suicidology. I advocate for humane treatment in the mental healthcare system and effective suicide prevention. I have given over 100 presentations in which I have shared my story of living with bipolar, surviving a mental breakdown while serving in the US Army, and fighting against forced psychiatric treatment in front of grad students, doctors, psych ward patients, educators, and youth at junior highs, high schools, and juvenile detention facilities. I have spoken across the country from the California State Capitol at an event headlined by legendary actor Richard Dreyfus to the Shedding Light on Mental Health Conference in Greater Wheeling, West Virginia. My content has been featured in The Mighty, This is My Brave, HealthyPlace, The S Word, OC87 Recovery Diaries, Sweatpants & Coffee, Stigma Fighters, and Schizophrenic NYC. In 2017, I was awarded the NAMI California Outstanding Peer of the Year and I was named one of The Mighty's Mental Health Heroes of 2017. After living in Los Angeles, California most of my life I recently relocated to the Denver, Colorado area.
