This is for Jen

I saw this advert in JFK airport and it made me think of Jen. We both have depression and we both get very fed up of people treating us like it's something we chose to have.

Yes! SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) and NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) are great for working on breaking the stigma of Mental Illness. NAMI even has PSA's (Public Service Announcement) on radio and TV. The sign you saw was from SAMHSA and we've even seen them in malls.

Oh, how do I know all this...My roommate and I are very involved in mental helath advocacy. The local and State levels of NAMI know me and my roommate very well. By the way we both have: Bioplar, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder.
