World Mental Health Day is an international day for mental health education, awareness, and support against social stigmas surrounding mental illnesses. To show your support, here are four accessories to wear for World Mental Health Day—and year-round to bring awareness.
Autism Awareness Badge Reel
The Autism Awareness Badge Reel is a good way to show your support for those living with autism. The Autism Awareness ribbon, the puzzle pattern, reflects the complexity and diversity of the people and families on the autism spectrum. Through the various bright colors and shapes, the ribbon also signals hope that people with autism can lead complete and courageous lives with the help of early intervention and proper treatments. This special badge reel has a standard belt clip and vinyl strap for your essentials, however, the manufacturer will donate 10% of the proceeds to the Autism Speaks Foundation.
Autism Awareness Flat Breakaway Lanyard
For a more apparent accessory, the Autism Awareness Flat Breakaway Lanyard is great to wear during charity walks, fundraisers, or at your everyday job. Like the awareness badge reel, this lanyard symbolizes the same hope and support of individuals and families that are living with autism. it comes with a breakaway feature to prevent choking or other harm. With the bright, attention-grabbing colors, it will be easy for you to bring awareness and support to such a great cause. The puzzle emblem on this lanyard is available in pink or red.
Heart Shaped Badge Reel
Sporting a Heart Badge Reel will visibly show off the love you have for yourself and the others around you. Self-love is an important part of taking care of yourself and should be acknowledged as much as possible. Share this badge reel with your family and friends to show them how much they are loved by others. This reel is available in three different colors.
Earth Friendly Bamboo Breakaway Lanyard
The color green symbolizes awareness for mental illnesses including bipolar disorder, autism, and depression. The Earth Friendly Bamboo Breakaway Lanyard is a great way to wear green and go green too. These bamboo lanyards are softer than cotton and have a silky texture. They also naturally draw moisture away from your skin, so you can stay cool and dry throughout the day. The "no-twist" wide plastic hook keeps your ID badge or badge holder visible at all times and ready to go whenever you need it. These biodegradable lanyards will keep your essentials close at hand, help save the planet, and bring awareness to mental health, a win-win-win.
