Cleveland Cavaliers basketball player Kevin Love and former UCLA standout joined Michelle Craske, psychology and psychiatry professor and co-director of the Depression Grand Challenge, Aug. 19, 2019 for "Minds Matter: Raising the Curtain on Depression and Anxiety" the first in the ongoing Minds Matter event series hosted by UCLA Psychology and the Geffen Playhouse about issues affecting the brain.
They spoke to a full crowd during the hour-long event and discussed anxiety and depression, public stigma and the DGC. During their chat, Love shared thoughts on mental health in athletics and stressed that the issue affects everyone: “The more we can normalize the conversation around mental health, the more we can do to help those that are struggling."
