Epilepsy advocacy
Manage episode 442760987 series 2080595
Amee is a dedicated health care provider known for her expertise and compassionate care. Beyond her professional achievements, she is a passionate mental health advocate and openly shares her personal journey living with epilepsy on her Instagram @behindthebindis. She is a powerful voice for those who feel they cannot speak up for themselves, working to raise awareness and foster understanding about mental health and invisible illnesses in the South Asian community and beyond.
During this episode, you will hear Amee talk about:
- What was it like growing up with epilepsy, but not really talking about it
- How her experience with epilepsy changed from childhood to adulthood
- The hospital stay that prompted her to disclose her epilepsy to her closest friends
- What inspired her to discuss her epilepsy publicly on her social media – and the meaning of “behind the bindis”
