It’s time to be brave and bring mental health issues into the spotlight because they’ve been in the dark too long. We can end the stigma associated with mental health disorders by creating a positive, supportive national conversation.
Jennifer Marshall, co-founder and executive director of "This is My Brave," is committed to ending the stigma surrounding mental illness. After being diagnosed with Type 1 Bipolar Disorder in 2006, she turned to writing as a way of healing, and her award-winning blog BipolarMomLife was born. Her organization has created a platform, which includes the This is My Brave YouTube Channel, for other people living with mental illness to share their stories and inspire others. Marshall’s ground-breaking approach is beginning to change the discussion and perception of mental illness.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
