2 years ago I attempted to create an advocacy organization that would help banish the stereotypes against mental illness. To my dismay, it failed. Countless phone calls, press kits etc. were sent to organizations through out the country and I had only received one response. Being a person who suffers from the illness myself it’s easy to dismiss such a project, after all, they all think I’m crazy. These are the people that are supposed to be helping people like me instead they look down upon me like I’m some sort of leper. After my failed attempt I decided to do something different, create a new website exclusive to the consumer (that would be those of us who suffer from mental illness). PROJECT STIGMA PHASE 2 is a true freedom of expression, it speaks the truth and it comes out of you and I. This site is dedicated to you! Express yourself, let people know how you feel inside, let them know what it’s like to feel depressed, have your mind racing uncontrollably, have panic attacks, have people tell you that there is nothing wrong with you, let them know how the health care system screwed you over, watch your friends turn away because of the pain you carry within you. It’s time we speak out, open your mouths and hit the keyboard, it’s your turn now. Submit essays, stories, poetry, songs or if you want just rant! Let it all out. Send all submissions to:
