Support Systems Throughout Life: Andy on religion, his mental health struggles, and family | 70

As children, we are often born into a religion that provides us with community and a sense of place. Even as we grow older, we may associate that community as a support system for our own mental health struggles. Join us today as we talk with Andy about his experience being raised in the LDS church, how he came to understand his mental health struggles, and what support systems mean to him.
