No Matter How Hopeless Things Seem, You Can Recover and Create a Better Life

I recorded this for NAMI’s “In Every Story, There’s Strength” Mental Health Awareness Month campaign. One reason I began publishing Changing Lives more than three years ago was to help reduce the stigma associated with mental health conditions. Another was to share free and low-cost resources, along with tips based on my experience, to help other people who don’t know what to do or where to turn to get the help they need.

This video does both, and I hope it is shared widely and my story inspires someone else to hang in there. Life does get better, even when that seems impossible.
