In our daily lives, we frequently make quick judgments or use clinical labels like “depressed,” “OCD,” or “bipolar” without truly understanding what they mean. This course takes you on an accessible and practical journey into the world of mental health. Together, we will learn how to see things more clearly and differentiate between everyday behavioral mistakes and actual symptoms of mental illness. This knowledge empowers us to help ourselves and our loved ones with wisdom, empathy, and awareness.
