State of Mind

There’s been a greater focus in the United States on the importance of mental well-being. 5 reporters for North Gate Radio each tell a story looking at what’s working and what isn’t when it comes to mental health care.

 

Transcript

NeEddra James: At the height of the COVID pandemic, public concerns over America’s worsening mental health took center stage. By 2021, it’s saturated the news cycle. 

Kyle Beckham: The country is in the midst of a mental health crisis. Mental health crisis. 

Various News Sound Bites: Mental health crisis. The defining public health crisis of our time. You may be feeling it as well.

It’s not your imagination. Anxiety is on the rise with so many people. Depression rates are at an all time high.

NeEddra James: Even though mental health is top of mind for many, America’s focus on mental health has had mixed results. While there’s a shift towards seeing people as whole human beings whose mental health matters. There are also persistent structural challenges, like financial stressors and systemic biases, that can make getting mental health care more difficult.

In some places, like in sports, the move towards taking mental health seriously has had real results, transforming athlete mental health from crisis management to preventative care. Reporter Robert Strauss introduces us to a former Olympic athlete, whose story is at the forefront of this change. 

Robert Strauss: It’s the late 1980s and six year old Myriam Glez is sitting in front of the TV in her home in France, watching synchronized swimming.

Myriam Glez: At the time, we had a strong contender for the French national team. And, um, I turned around and I told my mom, that’s what I want to do. 

Robert Strauss: And she did it! We’re listening to an Olympic qualifier from the year 2000, and Glez is on the French national team.

At 15, she became the youngest swimmer on the team and moved half a country away to Paris to live on her own. For Her hours consumed by either school or practice. Even though she was ranking high, her coach took her out of the starting lineup. Glez didn’t know why, and it took her 18 months to ask. 

Myriam Glez: We started working with a sports psychologist and a mentor coach, and that was really incredible.

Robert Strauss: Finally, after sessions with the sports psychologist, Glez confronted her coach and they worked things out. Sounds simple, but it wasn’t. Geoff Miller has spent two decades as a mental skills coach for Major League Baseball teams. When he started, he was one of the few. Now, every team has at least one. He says Glez’s hesitance to confront her coach is an example of what used to be.

Forget mental therapy, back then athletes couldn’t even admit they were injured or needed physical therapy. 

Geoff Miller: We are not that far removed from a time when Being in the training room was seen as being weak. So there was stigma on going to the trainer, and coaches would say, I don’t want to My athletes being in the training room because that means that they’re weak.

Robert Strauss: Miller says athletes can still view getting psychological help as a stigma. 

Geoff Miller: I still had players who didn’t want to be seen talking to me. I still had players who would text me and say, meet me in the dugout because they didn’t want to walk through the clubhouse with me. 

Robert Strauss: Myriam Glaze straightened out her crisis with the coach and ended up 2000 Olympics.

They missed a bronze medal by less than a point. She was eager for the next games and she wanted to go to business school, but her coaches didn’t like that idea 

Myriam Glez: and they basically asked me, uh, you either go to school or you prepare for the Olympics. And so I. I had never thought about retirement at that point.

And I, uh, was so shocked by the question, decided that was it. And I stormed out of the room and said, okay, I’m done. And I’m going to school. And, uh, that was the end of it. 

Robert Strauss: Except it wasn’t, and she was devastated. Glez told me she felt like she was pushed into retirement just because she wanted to go to college.

Myriam Glez: I was pretty angered at the situation, at my sport. Um, I used it as a motivation, but I don’t think that’s a healthy way to do that. 

Robert Strauss: That motivation, fueled by her anger and resentment, led Glez to a second act. She took a job out of business school in Australia and ended up making that country’s 2008 Olympic team.

From there, she went from athlete to coach. She coached the 2012 British team at the London Olympics.

Over the years, Glez recognized mental health for elite athletes should be consistent, not just a piece of crisis management. And she’s trying to do her part to help. She founded a non profit called Athlete’s Soul, which gets her clients to think about life beyond sports much sooner. 

Myriam Glez: It’s one of the few transition or retirement in life that happens when you’re still, you know, that could be in early twenties or even younger than that if you’re a gymnast, for example. So it happens at a time where we’re not necessarily equipped emotionally to deal with it. 

Robert Strauss: Len Wiersma is a mental health professional in the athletic department at UC Berkeley.

He says a misconception is that elite athletes are more confident and well adjusted than the average person. 

Len Wiersma: I see confidence as actually being even more fragile at the highest levels because there’s so much more pressure and so much more small differentiator and who’s going to win and who’s going to lose on the world stage and that sort of thing.

Robert Strauss: Wiersma says when he started 30 years ago, the main text on the subject of mental health for athlete was titled, Problem Athletes and How to Handle Them. 

Len Wiersma: One of the best selling books in modern day was written by a long time PGA sports psychologist by the name of Bob Rotella called How Champions Think.

And you could see just by the title of those two books a vastly different emphasis on those two different areas. 

Robert Strauss: There are now five mental health professionals in the Berkeley Athletic Department, which WIRSMA believes is the most for any university. But if he had his way, sports psychology would start way before college.

He says as early as the first grade. 

Len Wiersma: The earlier they can learn coping skills, the earlier they can learn confidence, the earlier they can learn how to communicate better, all those things, I think we’re missing the boat. To be quite frank, I would prioritize it over history and math and English, but I’m biased.

That’s what I do. 

Robert Strauss: Synchronized swimmer Myriam Glaze admits she had a remarkable athletic run. But wishes a class like that existed when she first told her mother she wanted to be in the Olympics. Robert Strauss for Northgate Radio.

NeEddra James: Like athletes whose mental health was overlooked for years, neurodiverse women of color are largely absent from the growing conversation about adult attention deficit, hyperactivity disorder, or adult ADHD. But social media posts de stigmatizing and raising awareness about adult ADHD are on every social media platform.

In 2022, TikTok videos using the ADHD hashtag had 11. 4 billion views. I spoke with Jasmine Dyer Eat, a 30 year old content creator, about why she took her ADHD diagnosis. 

Jasmine Dayarit: First, I was like, I want to do this so people have information. 

NeEddra James: Jasmine’s explaining why she launched her YouTube channel, BADHDie Braindump.

Jasmine Dayarit: Hello and welcome to the learn up series where I discuss aspects of ADHD. I think more people should know. 

NeEddra James: Her channel is dedicated to raising ADHD awareness among first and second gen Filipino Americans. 

Jasmine Dayarit: So it’s a very specific target audience, but it’s a very unique experience being raised by 

NeEddra James: immigrant parents or black parents or indigenous parents who faced racism, sexism, xenophobia, and poverty.

It’s a unique experience that shapes what ADHD is like for women of color. 

Jasmine Dayarit: I can say that my whole life I have had like another channel. 

NeEddra James: That’s how Jasmine describes living with ADHD. Like, the TV is blaring in the background. She can’t turn it down, and she can’t ignore it. 

Jasmine Dayarit: I think I knew I always had it, but I didn’t want to admit it.

NeEddra James: Jasmine’s journey starts in Pacifica, a picturesque beach town south of San Francisco. That’s where we met up to chat. What’s your dog’s name? Millie. Millie. How old is Millie? She and her pup, Millie, stay with her parents in the house she grew up in. E. Jasmine lived in a close knit Filipino community. She got great grades in high school, did lots of volunteer work, and eventually ended up at UC Davis studying clinical nutrition.

But a few weeks in, Jasmine knew something was wrong. 

Jasmine Dayarit: It was the most rigid curriculum I’ve been in, especially because of my major. Every class was offered once a year. If I failed one class, I’d repeat the year. And I was already behind, and I think I had that pressure on me. Like, I really could not fail any of my classes.

NeEddra James: But she’s easily distracted during lectures, misses important details on tests, and gets so anxious during exams that she forgets everything she studied and fails as a result. Looking back, she says, 

Jasmine Dayarit: Even when I tried to listen, I couldn’t. 

NeEddra James: Imagine being unable to control your focus, forgetting things, and being so flooded by stress that it’s hard to think clearly.

That’s what going to UC Davis was like for Jasmine. 

Jasmine Dayarit: Coming from a very collectivistic culture, it was heavily emphasized that what you do reflects your family. 

NeEddra James: So the last thing she wants to do is fail and make her family look bad. But she lands on academic probation twice, and she’s baffled by her failure.

Jasmine Dayarit: What’s going on? Like, why can’t I do anything anymore? Why doesn’t my brain want to learn anymore? 

NeEddra James: Jasmine gets kicked out of Davis. But she doesn’t tell anyone, including her parents. She stays in town, participates in campus activities, and audits classes. 

Jasmine Dayarit: It took until, like, a friend of ours committed suicide before I actually was just like, I think I really do need help.

NeEddra James: During the funeral, Jasmine learns her friend was gay and he’d been hiding it. It prompted her to ask herself, 

Jasmine Dayarit: Where are the places where I’m not being myself? And I realized it’s like I’m not being myself to myself. 

NeEddra James: The first thing she did was reach out to her academic counselor at Davis. Jasmine makes up credits, changes her major, and most importantly, Get some mental health evaluation.

But like many women, she’s diagnosed with depression, not the underlying ADHD. Three years later, and still depressed, she sees a tweet about women and girl ADHDers being frequently misdiagnosed with depression. She immediately schedules an ADHD evaluation. 

Jasmine Dayarit: It was January 26, which I remember because it’s my parents anniversary.

NeEddra James: After five years of wondering what was going on, she finally got an answer from her psychiatrist. She had ADHD. 

Jasmine Dayarit: She took everything that I said and she just believed it. And she just said, okay, let’s see what we can give you. 

NeEddra James: The percentage of women ages 30 to 49, that’s your Millennials and Gen Xers, diagnosed with ADHD nearly doubled between 2020 and 2022, according to data from Epic Research.

I asked Dr. Gabrielle Anderson, Clinical Director at Berkeley’s Hallowell Tadaro ADHD Center, what’s behind the growing number of women’s ADHD diagnoses? Her answer? Gender bias in early research. 

Dr. Gabrielle Anderson: Just like in many areas of healthcare, I think most of our understanding about ADHD is biased towards men. Um, and you kind of stereotypically think of like men being, you know, boys being the more like, you know, hyperactive, impulsive type that we’re more readily and easily identified.

NeEddra James: Meanwhile, Dr. Anderson says girls and women 

Dr. Gabrielle Anderson: more often have more inattentive symptoms that are not necessarily as easily noticeable and often fall through the cracks. 

NeEddra James: ADHD research overwhelmingly prioritizes one’s social identity, like race or gender, over what ADHDers experience at the intersection of race and gender, making it way harder for girls and women of color to receive support.

And left untreated, ADHD ers are at a greater risk of financial problems, substance abuse, and other mental health issues. Jasmine’s hoping her ADHD YouTube content will build community and acceptance. 

Jasmine Dayarit: That’s like such a big protective factor for people because When you get into your head with your A DHD symptoms, you take it as a personal flaw.

But then if you have enough people that are supporting you that kind of like overpowers those intrusive thoughts in your head and like you can see that you’re valuable and that your mindset is valuable, 

NeEddra James: and that can make all the difference

if you are in crisis. Please call, text, or chat with the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988 or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting TALK, T A L K, to 741 741.

While ADHD social media content and online chat groups provide individuals with support to navigate daily stressors, some occupational stressors might need structural changes. We’re in the midst of a national teacher crisis. They’re leaving the profession faster than new ones are entering. 

Ella Hasty: My mom was an elementary school teacher and she’s always like, don’t do it, don’t do it, don’t do it.

NeEddra James: Ella Hasty is an exception. She didn’t heed her mom’s advice and is in school to become a teacher. Ella’s emotionally invested in the work, but the financial pressure is already taking a toll. Reporter Renee Bartlett Weber has more. 

Renée Bartlett-Webber: As part of her credential program at San Francisco State University, Ella is required to teach twice a week without pay.

Ella Hasty: When I’m in the classroom, it’s like unpaid labor, which I’m learning and I’m happy to be there, but that can be like a little exhausting sometimes because you have to like work an additional job. 

Renée Bartlett-Webber: So Ella co teaches third graders, again without pay, in Berkeley Unified School District. 

Ella Hasty: So I leave at two, and then I bike home really quick, and then get in my car and I go teach the after school classes.

Renée Bartlett-Webber: Those after school classes? That’s her paid gig. She also commutes to San Francisco twice a week and spends 11 hours in class. And a year from now, her unpaid requirement will double. Erin Smith completed a program similar to Ella’s eight years ago. 

Erin Smith: The idea is that you’re essentially interning for a master teacher who is an expert in their field, and that it’s a learning experience.

However, you are expected to do the work of a teacher, especially as you’re near the end of the program. the program, so you’re fully running a class, you’re grading papers, you’re planning, as well as taking classes. So I know that it’s an intense experience for a lot of people who go through a program like that.

Renée Bartlett-Webber: Now, Erin is credentialed, has her own classroom, and the role is reversed. She’s the lead teacher and supervises a student teacher like Ella. And honestly, she feels a little guilty. 

Erin Smith: Not only did they not get paid, but they had to pay to be in this program, but they were doing all the same work that I was doing.

So, it’s um, it’s definitely a strange feeling being on the other side of that now. 

Kyle Beckham: The opportunity cost to become a teacher is very high. 

Renée Bartlett-Webber: Dr. Kyle Beckham works at the University of California, Berkeley. He’s a master’s supervisor for the Teacher Education Program. 

Kyle Beckham: Even if their program costs are covered, they still have to come up with 50, 000 to live for the year. And that’s a big hit. To go into a profession again, which is not high pain, you don’t want to be in the kinds of holes that people come out to do this kind of work. It’s just another level of stress that causes burnout. 

Renée Bartlett-Webber: The state’s been trying to address the teacher pipeline barriers by granting emergency permits, allowing some schools to hire teachers who don’t have a credential.

Because of staffing shortages, over 12 percent of California teaching positions are filled by an underqualified educator, which means they don’t meet the state’s credential requirements. Kyle says the lack of standardization adds to an already unstable environment in schools. Insufficient resources, school closures, safety concerns like gun violence, and the list goes on.

Ella Hasty: It seems all very stressful. 

Renée Bartlett-Webber: Here’s Ella again. 

Ella Hasty: But also like If, if I’m not going to do it, someone else might do it who like doesn’t care about it as much, you know, like I want to, I want to do a good job. 

Kyle Beckham: It’s passion driven work. 

Renée Bartlett-Webber: Kyle knows there are a lot of people like Ella who want to be great teachers, but passion isn’t the same as a paycheck.

Kyle Beckham: The state of California should be paying people to be student teachers. I think that that would be a completely worthwhile investment. It would attract a lot of more people into the job. And I think you would get more people who are passionate about the job, who really want to do it. 

Renée Bartlett-Webber: But, the question remains, where will the money come from?

California is in a huge budget deficit. There was a bill introduced to the state assembly that proposed to pay student teachers as much as a substitute, but it was halted due to budget considerations. The estimated cost? 300 million annually.

I’m Northgate Radio.

NeEddra James: Teachers aren’t the only ones raising serious questions about the sustainability of their work. Latinas are speaking up too, and questioning a gendered tradition that leaves much of the family caregiving burden on their shoulders. 

Jasmine Ascencio: I’m the oldest daughter, and growing up, my mom insisted that I know how to cook and clean.

NeEddra James: Reporter Jasmine Asencio’s mom wanted to make sure she knew how to take care of family. 

Jasmine Ascencio: I was chauffeuring my younger siblings to their after school activities, then doing my homework, then doing the housework. I had no life. The expectation was that I support myself and help support my family. 

NeEddra James: For many Latinas like Jasmine, this is a lifelong expectation.

So she used her reporting skills to dig in to what the future holds. 

Jasmine Ascencio: Without realizing it, most Latinas have been caregiving since we were young. You not only watched your mom care for a grandparent who most likely lived with you. Your small hands were put to good use, too. 

Angelica Herrera-Venson: It’s something that, uh, Mexican and Latino families are always praised.

Like, oh, there’s this dedication and commitment to the family unit, and, um, often at the sacrifice of oneself, and that oneself is often a woman. 

Jasmine Ascencio: Dr. Angelica Herrera Venson is the author of Multicultural Guide to Caregiving. She’s worked in the field of aging for almost 20 years. She’s currently the Associate Director at the National Council on Aging.

And Angelica doesn’t just study this topic, she’s observing it, up close. Her oldest sister has been the primary caregiver for their parents because she lives the closest to them. Their dad died last year from complications from Alzheimer’s. I see 

Angelica Herrera-Venson: that my sister is juggling many things, a full time job, her own husband has some health issues, and even though she doesn’t have kids, it’s, she’s very busy, but yet she’s having to constantly take time off of work, um, to take my mother to appointments, and when my father was alive, that was just double, triple the appointments.

Jasmine Ascencio: Seventy four percent of Latino caregivers are women like Angelica’s sister. 

Angelica Herrera-Venson: Every time I see her, she’s pulling out her hair. She’s not sleeping very well. So I, more and more, especially in the recent years with my dad, uh, definitely tried to step in more, but it’s never quite the same as being in that close proximity.

Jasmine Ascencio: Angelica found in her research on Latinos and aging that the primary caregiver is usually the eldest female. who lives the closest to the aging family member. And her research also shows that those caregivers jobs are getting harder. 

Angelica Herrera-Venson: Disability rates, chronic disease rates, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, arthritis.

These are all conditions that affect Latinos at astronomical rates compared to other ethnic groups. Even though Latinos are living longer. We’re living longer in disability. 

Jasmine Ascencio: According to a 2020 study from the National Alliance for Caregiving and the AARP, 48 percent of Hispanic caregivers are giving high intensity care compared to other groups.

There was also a decline in their health. In 2015, 51 percent rated their health as excellent. Five years later, that number dropped to 35%. Adriana Sanchez, who works with the Family Caregiver Alliance in the Bay Area, says stress has so much to do with that decline, the stress of caregiving, and for many of her clients, the stress that comes with being an immigrant in the United States.

Adriana Sanchez: I think caregivers, especially immigrants, feel like they have no voice. Well, that perhaps they don’t count because they don’t have legal status. So, for me, I love to be able to empower people and remind them that just because of your legal status, Or just because you don’t speak the language, that does not mean that your story doesn’t matter.

Jasmine Ascencio: Family Caregiver Alliance provides services to caregivers of adults with physical and cognitive impairments. And, as one of the few Spanish speakers at the organization, most of Adriana’s clientele is Latina. 

Adriana Sanchez: They’re usually the one doing all the bathing, all the changing. doing really all the hard stuff.

Jasmine Ascencio: She hears her clients complain that the men and their families are in charge of the easier parts of caregiving, like providing transportation and fixing things around the house. 

Adriana Sanchez: A lot of times they say it would be much easier if my brother or my husband, for example, if they could help me do the lifting.

Or do the changing. 

Jasmine Ascencio: But, Sanchez says her clients don’t have additional energy to fight traditional gender roles on top of everything else they’re doing. Over the years, my brother has fit perfectly into the male caregiving role. He’s currently renovating my mom’s laundry room. My younger sisters already made plans to have our mom live with her when the time comes.

And I, well that idea terrifies me. I watch the women in my family sacrifice their dreams to work themselves to burnout for others. Just to do it all over again the next day. I had a taste of what that’s like growing up and it isn’t the life I want for myself. I need guidance. Good thing Angelica, who we heard from earlier, created a blog called Kapuk, where she shares resources.

She stresses the importance of planning ahead and finding the support services you qualify for. 

Angelica Herrera-Venson: Like respite care, adult daycare. It doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to institutionalize your loved one, but there are many services out there. 

Jasmine Ascencio: Angelica adds that they are usually waitlist for services that support caregivers.

But if you wait until you’ve melted down or burnt out to sign up, you’re going to be at the end of the list. That means you’ll have to wait longer for help when you’ve already reached a crisis point. 

Angelica Herrera-Venson: That upfront planning makes all the world of a difference. It’s okay to seek that help because it’s a shame we have to wait until we’re in meltdown city before you wave that white flag.

Jasmine Ascencio: She says getting help doesn’t mean you’re abandoning your loved one or forsaking your obligations. It just means you’re taking care of yourself too. For Northgate Radio, I’m Jasmine Ascencio.

NeEddra James: Finally on the show today, Northgate Radio reporter Nicole Carruth takes us to Oakland, where herbalists are using plant medicine to help people deal with grief. And their timing couldn’t be better. 

Donald Trump News Clip: We’re going to help our country heal. We have a country that needs help, and it needs help very badly.

We’re going to fix our borders. We’re going to fix everything about our country. 

Nicole Caruth: While many who voted for Donald Trump think he can help heal this nation, many who didn’t think he’s going to make things a lot worse. 

B Dukes: It’s just very clear. That folks are in a grief state and really trying to figure out where to place that.

Nicole Caruth: B Dukes is the creative director at Freedom Community Clinic, a non profit based in Oakland that uses ancestral medicine to assist in healing. They noticed people coming into the apothecary had similar concerns and questions. 

B Dukes: How do I navigate being well, taking care of myself, imperialism, capitalism?

And, like, the medical system, on top of everything else going on in my life. 

Nicole Caruth: B decided to make grief the apothecary’s fall theme. 

B Dukes: We’re just in a turbulent time, and the intention is just to provide care.

Nicole Caruth: The apothecary sits on a stretch of Telegraph Avenue near Oakland Sutter Hospital. Behind the glass storefront, you can find wooden shelves filled with jars of dried herbs like nettle, chamomile, and motherwort. Across the room, there’s an altar covered with bright orange marigold flowers. which is sometimes called the flower of grief.

In nature, droplets gather on the flower at night and drip off it like tears when it opens in the morning. On the day I visited, I met the apothecary’s fall herbalist in residence, who only goes by their first name, Khushboo. They tore marigolds into pieces, preparing to make medicine, while someone read poetry out loud.

Khushboo: Marigold is to support with embracing and accepting death. And this can be like death of like a loved one, death of old selves. It’s like supports with transitions, moving through transitions. It’s like a flower of death, right? Like when it’s used in the altars to like call the spirits through its smell, through its bright color, but it’s also a beautiful flower of life.

Like, in its flower essence, it supports with instilling, um, life and sun like warmth back in the body. So it’s like a beautiful plant of duality. 

Nicole Caruth: B says what makes plants good healing allies has to do with the age and wisdom they carry. 

B Dukes: They have their own unique sense of technology that is influenced by the land, the soil.

Those who planted the seeds, they’re much more ancient than us, so there’s so much that they can teach us. 

Nicole Caruth: B says because there are so many plants, there’s one that can work for each of us, no matter where we’re from. Every week, the apothecary sees about 35 people. Most are black, brown, indigenous, or immigrants, because that’s who the nonprofit prioritizes.

As a black queer woman, I felt more at ease here than I ever do at the doctor’s office. I wasn’t really feeling the loss of Kamala Harris, even though I voted for her. I’m more worried about what’s ahead. I’m not. But since it was just a week after the election, I was curious what Khushboo might suggest for dealing with election related grief.

They pointed to a free packet of dried herbs on the shelf. 

Khushboo: There’s rose, passionflower, lemon balm, forage, and hawthorn berry, all. Address the nervous system, the emotional heart, the cardiovascular system. Great for fatigue, um, depression, anxiety. I would do motherwort as well. I think motherwort’s great for panic.

Nicole Caruth: The election isn’t the only thing people are grieving. Psychologist, Abigail Lev, at the Bay Area Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Center says that as a society, we haven’t processed the sadness and trauma from COVID. 

Avigail Lev: We’re just walking around acting like it never happened. It’s almost like a collective gaslighting, like la la la now, right?

When as a collective, we deny the realities of things. It’s even harder for us as a collective to get through it and grieve it. 

Nicole Caruth: In a world that’s quickly moved on from COVID, B from the Freedom Community Clinic says Some folks come to the apothecary expecting instant healing, when actually, plant medicine requires time to really work its magic.

B Dukes: Trust that there’s beauty in the process. It takes us 21 days to form a new habit. I think about plants in that same way. It’s like the same ways that we would pour our love into a committed relationship or a committed practice. Approach the herbs with that same care. 

Nicole Caruth: No one can say for sure what a second Trump presidency will bring.

What matters is that we have ways to deal with our feelings. 

B Dukes: When I see people come in and they bring their grief and they get held and cared for. Now their grief has somewhere else to live and it opens up at hope it opens up that possibility 

Nicole Caruth: B says this reminds us that we can be present in our grief and still persevere
