Patrick J. Kennedy is a former US Congressman and one of the nation’s leading voices on mental illness and addiction policy, and the New York Times bestselling coauthor of A Common Struggle. During his sixteen years in Congress, he fought to end discrimination against mental health care, highlighted by lead sponsorship of the landmark Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act. Patrick is the son of former Senator Ted Kennedy and the nephew of former president, John F Kennedy.

Today on the show we discuss: why it’s not surprising to Patrick that so many people are suffering from mental health issues, why kids specifically are having such a hard time in todays society, what you personally can do to prevent mental health issues, the changes our healthcare needs to make to help with prevention and reduce the risk of mental health problems, what parents can do to help their kids reduce their risk of addiction and severe mental health issues, what Patrick thinks about the current drug epidemic we are facing, his overall thoughts on how we can fix everything and much more.
