The first step in getting help is being open to the many support systems available. Offering to attend an appointment with a friend or loved one who is in need of help is a recommended act of encouraged treatment. We encourage you to take the powerful step toward recovery. Courage is important as that’s what it takes to talk about living with mental illness. Let’s turn this into an easy and open candid conversation to help break the barriers of negative stigmas.
