Say It Out Loud: Creating Connections Through Conversations

Created by young people for young people, NAMI Say It Out Loud is a free online card game that will bring you closer to your friends through conversation prompts about life, relationships, and mental health.

Best played on a mobile device, among 3-6 people, NAMI Say It Out Loud is made up of three card decks – Whisper It, Say It, and Shout It – with prompts that start at the surface and dig deeper as you play.

From questions about what makes you cringe to how you bring up your own mental health with friends, NAMI Say It Out Loud helps you explore how you and your friends approach mental health and well-being.

Included in the prompt cards are wild cards and wellness cards, which help mix up the conversations, like suggesting you give the person next to you a compliment or encouraging a stretch break.

NAMI Say It Out Loud can be used in almost any context – to change up game night, during a kickback with your roommates, at your sorority or fraternity meeting – the possibilities are endless!

NAMI Say It Out Loud was co-created by our 2022 NAMI Next Gen, a group of young adult advisory members. It is free to play and can be found at siol.nami.org.

PLAY SAY IT OUT LOUD!
