"FACT: Studies show that people with mental illnesses get better and many recover completely. There are more treatments, services, and community support systems than ever before, and they work.

There is no hope for people with diagnosed mental illnesses.
What is mental health?
Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. It means having good ways to deal with your feelings and how to enjoy life, even when things are hard. Mental health is important at every stage of life.

Just like physical illness, we can experience a mental illness anytime. Mental illnesses are common but help is available. With support and help, mental health can improve and recovery is possible.

​As a community we need to have honest and open conversations about mental health. Because when we help each other, we can build a supportive community for mental wellness. Regardless of what situation you may find yourself in – in wellness or not – help is available, and it’s time to talk about it."...

Maj Kim Patterson It was an attempt at humor.... one of my primary ways of staying sane. Finding the absurd in everyday life (like going to therapy and then telling the therapist that therapy is overrated....)
