S TAYI NG M E N TALLY VI GI L ANT & B R EAKING SO CIAL STIGMA

by Dakota Parks

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, nearly one in five U.S. adults live with a mental illness. Despite how common and prevalent mental illness is in America, talking about mental health can be an uncomfortable topic for many people. A social stigmatization lingers around mental health and leads to a reluctance to talk about it and seek treatment.

Navigating the mental health realm can also be confusing: where do you start, how do you pay for it, who should you see and what kind of treatment is best for you?

Now, more than ever, with the outbreak of COVID-19 and the preventative measures of social distancing, mental health is an important conversation to be having. We spoke with a licensed mental health counselor, a psychologist and a mental health advocate about how to stay mentally vigilant during crisis, navigate the mental health realm and break down the stigma around mental health.

There are several different types of providers for mental health, which may cause confusion for some people: psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists and counselors. A therapist is a broad term for professionals who are trained, and often licensed, to provide a variety of treatments and rehabilitation for people, including talk therapy. Psychiatrists are medically trained doctors that can prescribe medication for patients. Psychologists are PhD level doctors that can diagnose a mental illness and work in conjunction with a psychiatrist to treat a patient; psychologists also do important academic and clinical research.

Tamara Powell, a licensed mental health counselor with Empathic Practice, explained the importance of finding a good “fit” with a mental health provider.

“Go onto their website, read through their bios and don't just pick one at random. By doing that, you're going to start to get

a flavor of our personality and how we talk because therapist/ client fit, is everything. I tell my clients that in the first session: if you're not feeling it, I want to know,” Powell said. “You're going to be spending a lot of time with this person being very vulnerable, and that's not easy to do. I think it's the most sacred or intimate relationship you can have with a person. Most people tell their therapist things they don't even tell their partner or family. So, it's worth the extra 20 to 30 minutes of research.”

Empathic Practice is a multimodal treatment clinic ranging from talk therapy, to nutritional health, mindfulness, yoga, meditation and massage therapy.

“Most of my clients tend to be ones who would rather be on as little necessary traditional medication as possible. So, I always tell people that we can start out on the mindfulness tools like yoga and massage,” Powell said. “But, if it comes to the point where they’re still struggling to make it through the day with their presenting symptoms, then we're going to work with a psychiatric practitioner who is going to help with medication.”

Paying for mental health treatment is an additional stressor.

According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, in 2018 only 43.3 percent of U.S. adults with mental illness received treatment; however, 64.1 percent of U.S. adults with serious men-

tal illness received treatment.

Furthermore, 11.3 percent of U.S. adults with mental illness had no insurance coverage in 2018. Even those with insurance often have inadequate insurance or cannot find providers that accept it. Many therapists and psychiatrists do not take insurance to avoid rushing to diagnose a patient, or to ensure patient confidentiality. As Powell explained, some insurance agencies will push for a diagnosis in the first session with a patient to limit the number of sessions the agency will pay for. Sliding scale appointments are available at most practices to help low-income patients and out-of-pocket patients pay for treatment.

Lakeview Center is a leading treatment facility for mental health that serves over 36,000 people annually in 60 programs and services across Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa and Walton counties. Their behavioral health services include inpatient and resident treatment to outpatient services such as trauma services, psychiatry, counseling, day treatment and intensive, round-the-clock outpatient services. Lakeview also offers nearly all programs on a sliding scale basis to ensure that all patients can afford treatment.

Dr. David Josephs, a psychologist and clinical director at Lakeview Center, explained some general warning signs for mental illnesses and explained that it is normal to feel “out of funk” during COVID-19 self-quarantine.

“For your loved ones, look out for changes in behavior and how they're functioning.

Are they sleeping well? Are their eating patterns different?

Are they drinking or using substances more? Are they on edge and angry? If people are noticing changes in their personality right now, it is probably related to the situational stress,” Dr. Josephs said. “It would be very unusual that we wouldn't be ex-

periencing some level of anxiety or outrage in response to what's going on, because it's a very serious problem. However, it should not lead to pathology as long as we recognize changes and engage in practices that we can do at home to help adjust.”

Dr. Josephs said that people should continue eating well, exercising and getting the right amount of sleep. He said that the easiest thing to do when you’re feeling stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed is to get some good sleep and see how you feel the next day. Lakeview Center, and many other clinics in town have moved their services to online, virtual sessions, so patients can call or video chat with their therapists and doctors. Dr. Josephs also explained that talking and raising awareness about mental health is instrumental to breaking the stigma around it.

“

For your loved ones, look out for changes in behavior and how they're functioning. Are they sleeping well?

Are their eating patterns different?

Are they drinking or using substances more? Are they on edge and angry?”

“Often, we avoid getting treatment because we are frightened as to what the outcomes might be. There is also the additional burden of potentially being judged by otahers that it was our fault that we have a mental health problem or that we have a substance-use problem,” Dr. Josephs said. “I think talking more about mental health and talking about mental health in the con-

text of general healthcare is important. They are brain illnesses and we all have a brain—we are all vulnerable” Abraham Sculley is mental health advocate and speaker with Active Minds and Speak2Inspire. Sculley struggled with depression through college and now uses his own story to help encourage others to talk about mental health and end the social stigma around it. After taking a medical withdrawal from UWF, he changed his major from IT to psychology, so he could learn how to help others with their mental health.

“In our household, we never really talked about mental health. We never talked about feelings or emotions as much as other people do. When I was going through severe depression, I just thought it was a normal period of life as a college student. I chalked it up to stress that I was experiencing,” said Sculley. “I thought, ‘I just have to get over it or toughen up.’ I was afraid to tell my parents.

I later found out that my mom also was diagnosed with depression a while back. Imagine if I had known about that, how much more comfortable I would have been to have that conversation with her instead of trying to hide it and kind of figure it out on my own.”

Sculley travels around to different colleges, universities, churches and non-profits to tell his story and discuss what prevents people from seeking treatment and how to overcome that.

“It's all about storytelling and education. I believe that we all have a story, and my specific story may not be the exact same experience as someone else, but by normalizing the talk about being diagnosed with a mental illness, getting on medication and the challenges of finding a therapist, I can help others. I want people to know they’re not alone,” said Sculley.

COVID-19: YOUR ROAD MAP TO LEGAL ADVICE STARTS WITH THE LAWYER REFERRAL SERVICE JEFF NALL EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, ESCAMBIA-SANTA ROSA BAR ASSOCIATION COVID-19 has impacted our lives in so many ways, creating fear and uncertainty with every twist and turn of the pandemic. The effects of the coronavirus have real consequences including illness, death, deterioration of relationships, and our inability to provide and care for ourselves and our families.

Many people are finding themselves in need of knowledge about wills, estate planning, child custody and visitation as well as divorce, landlord and tenant issues, unemployment, bankruptcy, and foreclosure.

Seeking help and resources of any kind can be intimidating. Where do we start? Where do we turn? What do we do? We know what part of our life has been upended, but are not sure how to proceed.

Luckily, for those in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties who feel they may need legal help, a good place to start is the Lawyer Referral Service. It is provided as a public service by the Escambia-Santa Rosa Bar Association, the professional association of attorneys in the two-county area. The service is certified by the American Bar Association and The Florida Bar. Participating attorneys are carefully vetted to ensure you receive the best possible service.

The purpose of the service is to help the public find the right type of attorney based on their unique situation and circumstances. Think of it as sort of a match-making service.

So how does it work? Using the service is easy. You can call 434-6009, complete a form on our website,www. esrba.com, or send an email to lrs@ esrba.com. In whichever case, you will need to describe your situation so that the coordinator can provide you with the name and phone number of an attorney whose practice area fits the scenario. You will then schedule an initial consultation directly with the attorney.

Pat Atkinson, one of our lawyer referral service coordinators, has been with the service for more than 13 years and finds it a joy to help so many people. “My nursing background has enabled me to listen, put people at ease and pull out information that is important to determining the best referral,” explains Pat. “All of the attorneys who are part of the service are also a pleasure to work with and are committed to serving our community.”

We have approximately 50 attorneys who participate in the program representing roughly 90 areas of practice.

All of the attorneys who are part of the Lawyer Referral Service must be members in good standing of our Association as well as The Florida Bar, which is the organization of all lawyers who are licensed by the Supreme Court of Florida to practice law in the state.

Though the service does not have pro bono or contingency lawyers, all of the participating lawyers have agreed to an initial 30-minute consultation at a reduced rate of $40. Fees for additional services after the first half-hour are arranged between you and your lawyer.

You know the saying about an ounce of prevention. It is true. It is always a good idea to check with a lawyer when making decisions that can have longterm, binding implications. A short talk with a lawyer often tells you all you need to know - how serious a problem is, what your options are, how to handle it swiftly, and how to make sure it is settled for good.

To learn more about the Lawyer Referral Service, visit www.esrba.com/ for-the-public/lawyer-referral-service to watch a recent Coming of Age TV segment on the topic. If you feel you may be in need of legal assistance, call 434-6009, email lrs@esrba.com, or complete an online form at www.esrba. com. The Lawyer Referral Service is here to help you find a qualified attorney to handle your case.

DEEPWATER HORIZON ANNIVERSARY SPURS CALL FOR ‘CLEAN’ ENERGY JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — Environmentalists and some lawmakers are pushing for more alternative energy as the nation marks the 10th anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon disaster.

But those same alternative-energy backers fear the need to reinvigorate the economy because of the COVID-19 pandemic could ramp up efforts by President Donald Trump to expand oil drilling in federal waters around Florida.

“A really great way to create jobs for people is to actually invest in clean energy technologies of the future, which we know are cost competitive to old arcane systems of energy production,” said Aliki Moncrief, executive director of the Florida Conservation Voters.

U.S. Rep. Kathy Castor, DFla., said the focus on building a stronger economy “coming out of COVID, coming out of the BP (Deepwater Horizon) catastrophe” has to be based on clean energy.

“We know how to do this. We can be smarter,” Castor said during a webinar on Friday. “In Florida, we know when a hurricane comes through. It devastates a community. It wrecks your home.

You build it back on a stronger foundation.”

Backers of alternative energy say not fully embracing sources

such as solar and wind is a missed opportunity after the deadly April 20, 2010, explosion aboard the rig drilling for BP about 40 miles southeast of the Louisiana coast.

With hundreds of millions of gallons of oil spewed into the water in the three months after the disaster, fishing and tourism across the northern Gulf came to a halt and restaurants struggled as people were scared to eat seafood.

Oil companies, using new technologies, are now exploring in deeper waters than the Deepwater Horizon was located. Meanwhile, some regulations implemented in the aftermath have been eased as Trump has pushed to increase U.S. oil production, in part by expanding drilling in federal waters.

Christian Wagley, Florida director for Healthy Gulf, which monitors the oil industry, said COVID-19 has put a focus on supply chains and that Florida should take a similar look at how it gets its energy.

“We bring in natural gas. We bring in oil. To a lesser extent, we bring in coal,” Wagley said.

“But we are the Sunshine State, we have all the sunshine we could ever need to power the economy.”

Wagley said a positive trend is that solar energy has been growing in Florida.

“The state is now second in the nation behind California for solar jobs and fifth in the amount of installed solar capacity,” Wagley

YOUTHS AT JUVENILE FACILITY POSITIVE FOR COVID-19 NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF Four youths at a South Florida juvenile-justice facility have tested positive for COVID-19, the state Department of Juvenile Justice announced late Friday. The four cases at the Miami Youth Academy are the first confirmed COVID-19 cases involving youths in Florida’s juvenilejustice system. The department also announced that 10 employees at six juvenile facilities have tested positive, including two workers at the Miami Youth Academy. Four workers have tested positive at the Broward Regional Juvenile Detention Center, while the Palm Beach Regional Juvenile Detention Center, the Miami-Dade Regional Juvenile Detention Center, the Pinellas Regional Juvenile Detention Center and the Broward Youth Treatment Center have each had one infected worker.

did not provide details about the conditions of the youths or workers. “Youth inside juvenile detention centers and residential commitment programs are continuously being monitored and screened for symptoms and if a youth becomes symptomatic, he or she is isolated from other youth and the facility’s designated health authority is contacted,” the announcement said. The department said on April 10 that it was extending through April a ban on visitors to juvenile facilities. The announcement came hours after the department said a third juvenile-justice worker had tested positive for COVID-19, the contagious respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus. At that time, the Broward Regional Juvenile Detention Center, the Broward Youth Treatment Center and the Pinellas Regional Juvenile Detention Center each had one case involving a worker.

said. “I used to be able to joke that New Jersey had more installed solar capacity than Florida. But we’ve rapidly caught up and passed them now.”

Moncrief said the way people and governments have reacted to the coronavirus, which causes COVID-19, shows what “we can do to combat other crises.”

“The coronavirus is superacute. It’s shutting things down.

Climate change is also doing that but on a slower time scale,” Moncrief said. “One thing that I hope we learn from this crisis is that we actually can make changes very quickly when we want to and when we recognize that it will make us safer and increase our well-being.”

Castor, who represents the Tampa area, equated the nationwide situation created by the coronavirus to how it felt along the Gulf Coast after the Deepwater Horizon explosion.

“Overnight you had the blowout, 11 workers lost their lives, but all of a sudden people had lost their jobs,” Castor said. “Small business owners lost businesses and had to furlough workers. It was the worst environmental catastrophe in American history.

And it was devastating. And we’re still recovering from the environmental impacts.”

ARGUMENTS PUSHED BACK IN MAJOR GUN CASE NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF After the state’s lead attorney requested a delay, the 1st District Court of Appeal has pushed back arguments in a battle about a 2011 state law that threatened tough penalties if city and county officials approve gun regulations.

The Tallahassee-based court issued an order Friday scheduling the arguments on July 14. The court was scheduled to hear the case June 16, but state Deputy Solicitor General James Percival submitted a filing this week asking for a continuance. The filing said Percival’s wife is expected to give birth to twins and it will be difficult to “obtain help from extended family members and friends during this time given the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.”

The state is asking the appeals court to overturn a circuit judge’s ruling that said parts of the 2011 law were unconstitutional. Florida

efforts, with the spill accounting for such things as the deaths of 170,000 sea turtles and 800,000 birds.

The report also found the seafood industry lost $1 billion, the housing market across the region saw prices drop 4 percent to 8 percent for at least five years, and the recreation industry lost more than $500 million.

The Florida Legislature in recent years set up the nonprofit Triumph Gulf Coast to oversee three-quarters of the $2 billion the state will get as part of a multistate settlement with BP. Triumph Gulf Coast’s board directs money to projects in Northwest Florida.

Offshore drilling has long been a political lightning-rod issue in Florida, with many coastal businesspeople and residents opposed to it. But supporters of drilling, including the petroleum industry, say domestic energy production creates jobs and is a national security issue.

In 2018, then-U.S. Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke traveled to Tallahassee to announce that Florida would be exempt from Trump’s offshore drilling plans.

However, Zinke’s statement was seen largely as a political favor to then-Gov. Rick Scott’s U.S. Senate campaign.

Later that year, nearly 70 percent of Florida voters approved a constitutional amendment that reinforced a ban on drilling in state waters off the coastlines.

since 1987 has barred cities and counties from passing regulations that are stricter than state firearms laws, and the penalties in the 2011 law were designed to strengthen that “preemption.”

The law, for example, could lead to local officials facing $5,000 fines and potential removal from office for passing gun regulations.

Local governments and officials filed three lawsuits challenging the 2011 law after the February 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland that killed 17 people.

The lawsuits were ultimately consolidated in Leon County circuit court, where Judge Charles Dodson last year rejected parts of the law. Dodson cited issues related to “legislative immunity,” which protects local government officials in their decision-making processes. He also pointed to the constitutional separation of powers, as judges could be asked to rule on penalizing local officials.

Supporters of the law, including the National Rifle Association, contend it is needed to prevent cities and counties from overstepping their legal authority in passing gun regulations.

THOUSANDS OF INMATES EXPOSED TO COVID-19 ANA CEBALLOS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — Florida Department of Corrections officials on Friday reversed course and released comprehensive data about thousands of inmates who have been exposed to the coronavirus while incarcerated.

Corrections officials said there are 4,062 inmates throughout the state who have been placed in medical quarantine or medical isolation after being exposed to the highly contagious coronavirus.

The vast majority of the inmates who have been exposed — 3,906 cases — are in medical quarantine, a practice used to separate individuals who came into close contact with a person who tested positive for the virus or who was symptomatic, corrections officials said.

The remaining 156 inmates are in medical isolation because they are suspected of having or confirmed to have the virus, officials said.

COVID-19 has been detected in 54 prisons and four probation offices throughout the state corrections system, which has roughly 94,000 inmates, 23,000 workers and 145 facilities. Friday’s reported number of facilities with confirmed COVID-19 cases more than doubled from Thursday, when officials reported cases in 25 facilities and three probation offices.

For three weeks, the Department of Corrections refused to release the data, despite numerous requests from state lawmakers, The News Service of Florida and other media outlets. Corrections officials also kept the first two inmate fatalities secret for nearly a week, saying in a statement Friday they held off because they were “determining the proper manner for releasing

ANDRE W Mc K AY

Capitol News information” to the public.

Four inmates have died as a result of COVID-19, the respiratory illness caused by the coronavirus, officials said Friday. The state is not identifying facilities where inmate deaths have occurred, but the News Service has confirmed that all of the inmates were housed at Blackwater River Correctional Facility in Santa Rosa County.

Blackwater, a prison operated

by The Geo Group Inc., is the state's hardest-hit correctional facility. As of Friday, 34 inmates and nine workers at the prison tested positive for the virus, according to the corrections agency. The Milton prison, which has a maximum capacity of 2,000 inmates, currently has 760 inmates in medical isolation or quarantine, officials said.

Nearly all of the inmates at Tomoka Correctional Institution have been exposed to the virus, according to data provided by the state.

The Daytona Beach prison, which has a maximum capacity of 1,263 inmates, has 1,126 inmates in medical quarantine or isolation. Seven inmates and three workers at the facility have tested positive for the virus, with 99 other inmates awaiting test results.

Sumter Correctional Institution also has been impacted by the virus, with three inmates and two workers testing positive for COVID-19 and tests on 39 inmates pending, officials said.

The Bushnell prison, which can house up to 1,639 inmates, has 484 inmates in isolation or quarantine, officials said.

As of Friday, 330 Florida prisoners have been tested for the virus, with nearly 54 percent of the test results pending, according to corrections officials. The number of tests that have been performed encompass approximately 0.3 percent of the state’s roughly 94,000 inmates.

DESANTIS ENCOURAGES OUTDOOR ACTIVITY JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis wants people to go outside and exercise while keeping their distances from each other, as part of efforts to slowly reopen the state.

DeSantis, who will look to recommendations from a task force on reopening businesses, schools and facilities shut down by the novel coronavirus, said the risk of transmission is “much more” minimal for people who are outdoors and not in large groups.

“I think that to be able to get people out in the sunshine and be able to get some fresh air, I’ve always promoted essential activities with recreation,” DeSantis said while in Fort Lauderdale at the opening of a coronavirus testing site. “You just got to do it in a way that’s going to have low risk. If you go run in your neighborhood by yourself, if you’re not coming into contact with anyone, it’s very low risk.”

Earlier in the week, DeSantis expressed concerns about a lack of physical activity by people on stay-at-home orders.

DeSantis, who was expected to name members of the task force Friday, said Southeast Florida may have a slower revival than other parts of the state, as the largest concentration of coronavirus cases have been in MiamiDade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. His comments came as Duval County opened beaches with restrictions Friday.

The task force is expected to follow a similar effort at the White House, where President Donald Trump issued a three-phase reopening plan on Thursday.

DeSantis, who has left rules for beaches up to local governments, expects Florida to use the Trump plan as a “baseline.”

“It doesn’t mean that Florida is going to do every single thing they say or not say,” DeSantis said.

“But that is a pretty good baseline.

So, you look at different things.

What does the workforce look like? Some of these businesses, letting people get back to work. I think that that is something that is very, very important.”

Trump’s guidelines for a phased reopening leave much of the decision-making to governors.

Phase one would allow restaurants, movie theaters, gyms, sports venues and places of worship to operate with physical distancing in place. Elective surgeries would also be allowed.

The second phase would seek to reopen schools and reactivate youth activities, along with bars that operate with diminished standing-room occupancy.

The final phase would resume all worksites, including visits to senior care facilities and hospitals.

The president’s proposal requires the availability of increased testing and a trending down of the number of coronavirus cases before stay-at-home orders and other restrictions are lifted.

“We do need to get to a next phase,” DeSantis said. “Maybe Southeast Florida looks a little different than the rest of the state. And I think that that would make sense.”

Duval County beaches were being reopened Friday for certain recreational activities under an order issued by Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry.

“This can be the beginning of the pathway back to normal life,” Curry said in a prepared statement.

The order allows people to walk, bike, hike, fish, run, swim, surf and take care of pets, so long as they maintain physical distancing guidelines, with the beaches open from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

People aren’t allowed to sunbathe or bring towels, blankets, chairs, coolers and grills.

No organized group activities, from picnics to sporting events, are allowed.

City golf courses have also been reopened for normal hours, with the same physical distancing guidelines.
