Every June, we recognize Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising understanding about a condition that affects millions of people across the globe. At Alleviant Health, our mission is to bring compassion, clarity, and comprehensive care to those navigating the challenges of PTSD. This month, we honor the strength of survivors and emphasize the importance of accessible, integrative mental health care.

Not every mental health battle looks the same. Some people cry, some go quiet. Some isolate, while others keep smiling through the pain. You may not even realize you’re struggling — until the weight of “holding it all together” becomes too much to bear.

During Mental Health Awareness Month, we want to shine a light on the people who don’t fit the typical image of depression or anxiety — those who appear “fine” on the outside, but inside are running on empty.

Maybe that’s someone you love. Maybe it’s you.
