  1. Good morning to everyone this morning, especially anyone living with mental illness.

    Too often we donโ€™t talk about mental illness because of shame and stigma - we need to more openly converse so people know they arenโ€™t alone.

    Mental illness can happen to anyone, at anytime, for a variety of reasons - so letโ€™s be kind.

  2. Normalize the understanding that someoneโ€™s mental illness is only one facet of who they are - every single one of us has so many different aspects to who we are, and to make someoneโ€™s mental illness all you see when you look at them or think about them only increases stigma in our society.

    We can do better and see people as full human beings.๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿฆ„
