No Shame Day

Yesterday was No Shame Day a day created by Bassey Ikpi, founder of The Siwe Project (go to www.thesiweproject.org). A bunch of us shared stories of living with mental illness. One of the comments I got was from a woman in South Africa who stated that the stigma of mental illness is the same there. Sadly it's probably like that everywhere. I believe that the more people share the more it helps to create a different picture. Thanks Bassey.
