Have you ever heard of a game called “Heads Up”? Players place an identifying word card on their foreheads that says something like “alligator” or “doctor” or “trapeze artist.” The goal is to guess what your card says while giving clues to help other players discover their own “identity.” When playing the game, it’s easy to get so caught up in helping your friends that you forget you have a card on your own forehead. This is what it can feel like in the mental health arena.
