Murrell May 5, 2022 Overview • Introduction of Topic and Problem • Summary of Essay 1 / Library Research • Summary of Essay 2 / Online Research • Summary of Essay 3 / People Research • Proposal • Reflection of Overall Research Process • Conclusion/Final Thoughts • References Introduction of Topic and Problem ◦ What is MENTAL HEALTH? Mental health is a level of psychological well- being, or an absence of mental illness. It is the "psychological state of someone who is functioning at a satisfactory level of emotional and behavioural adjustment“ (Holmes, 2015, p.23) ◦ Why does MENTAL HEALTH matter? Mental health and wellness are essential to overall health. The World Health Organization defines health as “... a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being.” For all of us, our mental, physical, and social health are interdependent. Library Research ◦ According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Only 25 percent of people with mental health issues feel that people are caring and sympathetic toward their struggles (Smith, 2018). ◦ According to the Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health, African Americans are 20% more likely to experience serious mental health problems than the general population (Jackson, 2017). ◦ Summary: From the library research, I was able to gain extensive facts and figures related to mental health, particularly that of African Americans. Online Research ◦ Illnesses that African Americans most often suffer from: ◦ Major depression ◦ ADHD ◦ Suicide(African American men) ◦ PTSD (African Americans are more likely to be victims of violent crime) ◦ African Americans are more likely to experience certain factors that increase the risk for developing a mental health condition like homelessness and violence exposure (NAMI, 2015). ◦ Summary: My online research gave me more up-to- date information and actual cases related to mental illness and mental health. People Research ◦ According to Lily Sanders, “Social media is full of negativity, people want to look like models, have houses and money like influencers, their identity totally changes. This causes a problem with people’s mental health” (personal communication, April 10, 2022). ◦ “Personally, I feel as thou suicide is never for no reason at all! Different things can lead to it such as; depression, mental disorders, drug abuse, physical and mental abuse, emotional distress, bullying, etc.” (J. Doug, personal communication, April 15, 2022). ◦ Summary: Overall, my people research gave me perspectives I couldn’t find online or in books. Listening to how people really feel about mental health was eye-opening. Proposal ◦ This final proposal will address the problems associated with mental health. ◦ Based on my research and evidence from books, academic journals, the Internet, and people (Essays 1, 2, and 3), mental health can best be addressed by holding multiple events that bring awareness to the topic, specifically for students right here on the campus of FSU. ◦ These events would be held once a month on FSU’s campus. They would invite the entire community with special guest speakers for all in attendance. ◦ During my research I found that awareness and community are big for mental health. Events like these would promote inclusion and provide activities for groups of all ages. ◦ The overall goal is to spread awareness about mental health and let people know that they are not alone. Reflection of Research Process Overall, my favorite essay was number 3 because I got to talk to actual people about my topic. Getting their perspectives really made this research fun. Essay 1 was the hardest to complete because I’m not good with books and I’ve never been to the library. My topic is relevant for today so finding books on my topic was difficult. For the online research, my essay was done in one day. I feel like online research is easy. Using the CRAAP test also helped me evaluate my sources to be sure I had reliable articles for my essay. Conclusion ◦ Despite the best efforts of so many devoted educators, children who struggle with mental health and learning disorders still face an array of serious challenges and obstacles in school. ◦ It is up to the public, as well as education systems, to educate everyone about mental health and the issues that may be related. ◦ If we all help one another, we could save a life!
