They Can Surprise You
"Here’s what else I’ve learned since I started telling people about my mental illness: They can surprise you."
What I Lost
"I know the idea of recovery is scary, but nothing is scarier than staying in this hell we’ve been allowing ourselves to live in."
For When Speaking Out Is Hard
"If we all spoke out, maybe we could make a difference. Maybe at least we would all stop feeling so alone."
When You Just Can’t Fix Yourself
"I wish someone had told me that I wasn’t alone, that there were literally thousands and thousands of people who were feeling the exact same way as me."
We’re Partnering With The Mighty!
We're thrilled to announce a new partnership that will put our resources in front of The Mighty's wide-reaching readership.
You’re Invited: #SupCon16
"Orlando is the place and you're officially invited."
Shame, Community, and Recovery
"Shame told me I could never change. Community proved my friends and family were there for me. Recovery taught me the importance of speaking out about mental illness."
A Letter to the Person Considering Suicide
"No one else may ask you not to kill yourself today. Please don’t let my letter be a missed opportunity."
I Didn’t Want to Die
"There is a reason you are reading this right now, at this very moment in time. This is a message you need to hear."
Mulligans and Missing Him
“Whenever I see a suicide covered in the media and hear the inevitable commentary about selfishness, I get angry and I remember.”
When Hope Starts to Speak
"And now… now I know can believe hope when it starts to speak to me through the darkness."
Watching What You Say
"Part of me still hears this nearly instinctual internal voice saying, 'Everyone gets it. You’re depressed. Stop bringing it up already.'”
