💙 Today is World Mental Health Day, so we’re throwing it back to an important conversation from our Living With MG video series.

🎥 In this conversation, Danielle Hellios, MSW, LCSW, Clinical Social Worker at Northwest Neurology, Ltd., talks about mental health and myasthenia gravis.

Danielle shares thoughtful insights on navigating the emotional challenges that can come with MG, recognizing when you may need additional support, managing stress during difficult health changes, and building a strong support system.

Living with MG can affect more than physical health. Taking care of your mental and emotional well-being is an important part of the journey, too. 🧠💙
