I know I normally post about politics but this is an issue thats important to me. Many people suffer from mental illness or depression alot of which is treatable with medication or therapy. A big part of treatment is catching it early, the Mental Health America website has several screenings which you can take for free and I encourage you to try it. http://www.mentalhealthamerica.net/ I encourage everyone to be supportive of people they know who are going through depression or mental illness, these are not weaknesses, they are diseases and people should not be judged or stigmatized for having them. One of the biggest barriers to people seeking treatment is the societal stigmatization of mental illness, this needs to stop, so be supportive of one another. Some people just want a place to talk about it. So feel free to post bellow, i know this community can be toxic at times but i also know its capable of helping one another when they are in need.
