The Story and Importance of Mental Health | Luis Gaspar | TEDxSioux Falls Youth

My talk was focused a lot on mental health. I mentioned a statistic fact of how many teenagers were struggling with their mental health. I talked about why and how people struggle with their mental health, I mentioned my experience with my mental health. I also gave a story on how it happened to me at such a young age. I mentioned a lot on how I got through it and I gave that advice to the people that were watching. I just want to spread the message to everyone; I feel like someone would watch this when they see the title because mental health has been something that we all hear now and we all find it important. Luis is a Senior in high school and is planning on attending Dakota Stare University post grade school. Luis was chosen to give a TED Talk, so he is going to go through with giving one. Luis is shy and doesn’t do a lot of public speaking yet, so this Talk was really scary for him but also fun. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
