For some encouragement, I just watched an AWESOME, riveting documentary (it is only 30 minutes long) featuring 3 individuals suffering from mental illness, showing how they cope and are now living well with it. It advocates for mental health and reducing stigma, and it's truly dynamic. The stories are really compelling, heartwrenching, but also comforting. I was so depressed yesterday, and when I watched it I felt like someone had given me a big hug. I guess because seeing these stories, I felt understood and validated. Give it a watch if you get the chance! I expect it will make a difference in how you feel.
