Being Our Own Mental Health Advocate
We need each other to combat stigma, to make others like us realize they can overcome it. We need each other to advocate for ourselves. The Stability Network is about the possibility of hope and recovery. We are a message of empowerment.

The Joy of Rethinking Resolutions
Over the years, I’ve had a love-hate relationship with the New Year, and so often it would end in disappointment.

I focus on what I know to be true: that the struggle to live with and manage a mental health condition gives me empathy for others. That I have great sensitivity. That even on medication—in fact, especially on medication—I get to feel the world deeply and be my best self. I get to thrive.
