From existing to LIVING- Mental Health Awareness Month
Monday Apr 30, 2018
Monday Apr 30, 2018
All of the interviews and episodes in the month of MAY will be related to #fightingthestigma and #Mentalhealthawarenessmonth.
In April, I posted openings for interviews on FB and Insta. I asked if there were any brave souls willing to talk openly about their mental health struggles. Because MH stigma is so strong, I didn't expect to get many responses. Luckily, I am friends with many fearless mental health warriors, and here I interview one of them!
In this episode, I talk with my friend, Clarissa, about her own depression and treatment. We candidly discuss medication, symptoms, and life changing interventions.
