Building Supportive Streamer Communities w/ Mental Health In Mind

Streaming, regardless of platform, goes hand in hand with gaming these days. When you stream, you create a built-in community of like-minded people - which can be a benefit or a barrier to your own growth and the growth of those around you. There is ample opportunity to talk about and around mental health, the struggles we have in common, the resources we rely on and ways we find where we belong in the gaming and streaming community. Let's talk about how we can cultivate a culture of support, understanding and openness - both on camera and off!
