Poll: "It's OK to Not Be OK"
Tom Brady, the former NFL quarterback, can currently be seen in commercials advocating for mental health therapy and briefly discussing the benefits he has reaped from his own. He's not the first. In December, 2020, the Indianapolis Colts, an American football franchise, released a TV advertisement to kick off their "Kick the Stigma" campaign. The non-profit initiative aims to end the stigma that too often surrounds mental and emotional health concerns. One of the hopes is that if people see strong, successful, and "tough" NFL players discussing their experiences with, for example, depression or anxiety, others will see that feeling "not OK" makes someone human, not weak. The following actors and musical artists have also been open about their own experiences with mood disorders, mental health problems, and/or substance abuse. Of these well known entertainers, who most inspires (or convinces) you that "it's OK to not be OK?"
