#WeThriveInside: Emma Stone & Reese Witherspoon Talk Mental Health Awareness Amid Pandemic

Emma Stone joined Reese Witherspoon and Child Mind Institute President Dr. Harold Koplewicz to talk about and raise awareness for the 17 million American children struggling every day with a mental health or learning disorder, and to help their families get the help they need to navigate unprecedented challenges during the COVID-19 crisis.

“I’ve been thinking a lot about families during this difficult time,” Reese said. “Especially how children are handling the stress of quarantine. So, I decided to have a conversation… about mental health and the ways we can help children while they are at home.”

Throughout the month of May, the Child Mind Institute’s #WeThriveInside campaign is featuring homemade, inspiring videos from celebrities sharing personal messages about what they’re doing to cope while isolating at home. Watch Margot Robbie‘s just-released video.

Emma added why she’s getting involved with the initiative: “I actually was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and panic disorder when I was 7-years-old. I was very lucky to be able to start therapy at that age, which is not necessarily a common event for young kids.” Watch the video conversation below!
