From Project BFF HQ, Manya (minus Terri) riffs with Nisha Lehmann about games for mental health and the role of our friends in supporting us as we deal with mental health challenges.
We discussed the app she designed, Confidential Conversations, which offers anonymous and affordable peer-led online support groups for a wide array of mental health issues. We also talked about the role that stigma and shame can play in who we choose to speak to about our mental health issues and how that sometimes means that a good friend might not be the best person sometimes.
Nisha Lehmann is a mobile developer by day. By night, she is a staunch advocate for better mental health. You can reach her and learn more about the app at Confidential Conversations, or on X (Twitter), Instagram, and Facebook.
