MYTH: "Coming to mental health will negatively affect my chances for promotion."

FACT: Community Mental Health Services does not have direct input to promotion boards.

MYTH: "Seeking mental health treatment means that I'm weak."

FACT: Seeking treatment means that an individual is not afraid to acknowledge that he or she needs help. This self-awareness represents strength, not weakness.

MYTH: "I have a great family and supportive friends—I don't need to talk to a professional."
