NAMI North Texas

Every year at NAMIWalks, I meet people carrying things you can’t always see. Stress. Burnout. Grief. Anxiety. Depression. The weight of supporting someone they love. And every year, I also see something powerful happen: people realize they are not alone. There’s laughter. Encouragement. Resources. Connection. Hope. That’s why this event matters so much. I’m honored to serve as an honorary chair again this year alongside Maria Guerrero, and I would truly love to see you there. NAMIWalks North Texas @namintx # Grandscape | The Colony Saturday May 16 Registration: 8 AM Walk Begins: 9:30 AM Free to join. Open to everyone. 💙@nbcdfw #MentalHealthAwareness #NAMIWalks #YouAreNotAlone depression

💚 Stigma grows in silence. Healing begins in community. Mental health struggles can feel isolating, especially when we think no one will understand. This Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re encouraging open conversations, honest connection, and support without judgment—because no one should have to navigate mental health alone. #MHAM2026 #YouAreNotAlone #NAMINTX

Living with a mental health condition can feel isolating, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Later this month, we’re starting NAMI Peer-to-Peer, a free 8-session program for adults living with mental health conditions. This program offers a supportive space to learn more about mental health, recovery, coping strategies, and treatment options while connecting with others who truly understand. Led by trained people with lived experience, Peer-to-Peer is built on compassion, hope, and community. You deserve support too. 💙 Registration is now open, and we’d love to have you join us. 🔗 Link in Bio

Routine screening for tardive dyskinesia (TD) matters, as earlier recognition and treatment of TD can help people who are already managing their mental illness. Get tips to start the conversation with your healthcare provider: TalkAboutTD.com. #TDAwarenessWeek #TDAW2026 #Screen4TD

Tardive dyskinesia (TD) can impact daily life — even for those with mild TD movements. In a survey of 150 adults diagnosed with TD, 86% agreed that their movements made them feel judged or stared at.
