No Restraints with Rudy Caseres Episode 7: Ross Szabo

Read Now

This week on No Restraints with Rudy Caseres my guest is Ross Szabo. Ross is a pioneer mental health advocate before that was even a thing and has shared his story of living with bipolar, surviving a suicide attempt, and fighting alcohol abuse among other things. Over the span of a couple decades he’s reached hundreds of thousands of youth and helped shape the modern landscape of mental health advocacy. I’ve been following Ross Szabo since I first started sharing my story in 2014 so it’s an honor to have him on as a guest and interview him. I hope this isn’t the last time Ross and I work together because I admire the work he does now more than ever. You can learn more about Ross and his work as well as how you can hire him to come speak to your school at RossSzabo.com.

ABOUT RUDY

My name is Rudy Caseres and I am an award-winning public speaker, live-streaming, social media influencer/manager, and storytelling event producer. I am the host of No Restraints with Rudy Caseres where I have live interactive candid discussions with the leading advocates in mental health, human rights, and suicide prevention (currently on hiatus). 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.
