DESCRIPTION:More than 1 billion people are living with mental health disord
 ers\, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). \n\nIn our opensou
 rce communities\, this sensible topic is rarely mentioned\, and even more 
 rarely taken into account seriously. Meanwhile\, a lot of developers or Op
 enSource maintainers suffer from mental health issues related to their act
 ivity. This can lead to well-known situations such as burn-out\, maintaine
 r's fatigue\, job quit\, or sometimes to much worse situations.\n\nOpenSou
 rce communities is mostly composed of engineers\, who are - let's be hones
 t - usually very bad at dealing with social\, human\, communication or emo
 tional issues. I am one of them\, and was also very bad on these topics.\n
 \nCommunication is key. With this presentation\, I intend to put the issue
  on the table so that we can start discussing the matter openly and find w
 ays to improve our community's well-being.\n\nI will present how OpenSourc
 e communities consist in specific environments\, especially on communicati
 on and human relationships. \n\nThen I will give some examples of situatio
 ns I have seen in OpenSource communities that can lead to well-being issu
 es. \n\nAnd I will try to give some ideas to improve the situation in the 
 future\, on individual and collective levels.
