Our generation is living through a mental health crisis. 19.86% of American adults, appx. 50 million, are diagnosed with mental illness, and the risk only increases with youth, veterans, LGBTQ+, and other marginalized communities. Furthermore, those seeking treatment often depend on prescription pharmaceuticals, using these drugs for long periods of time, even for their entire lives. Fortunately, a small team of doctors has developed a non-invasive electrical stimulation technology that can promote healing processes within the body, and the potential impact of this invention could change the way we approach mental health treatment forever. This is a short film on this technology, the people involved, and the greater mission to heal a generation that needs it.
