Need: Help Stop the Stigma Surrounding Mental Illness!

Need: Help Stop the Stigma Surrounding Mental Illness!
If you’ve known me awhile you probably know I started struggling with chronic depression as a youth. As a young newly single mother of 4 my untreated depression only flourished as I sank.
Years later I wish I had not let the stigma keep me from facing the fact that I had an illness that needed treatment. It would have saved me and my youngsters at the time a lot of darker days. There is no miracle cure but it CAN be overcome with time and a lot of hard work.
So many people suffer and even end their lives because of the shame and stigma. Please lets break this cycle. Lets spread awareness, education and break the da*n stigma!!
