The Invisible Illness
You are not alone in your struggles. This piece of knowledge alone can be incredibly comforting and validating. The Invisible Illness is a wonderful resource with an impactful motto: "reducing mental health's stigma one story at a time." This non-profit organization strives to reduce the stigma of mental health by providing a platform for individuals who have been affected by mental illness and suicide to share their stories and connect with others. In addition to these weekly featured stories, the organization provides free mental health workshops and the donations raised go towards these interactive experiences. Another feature of this organization is their university campus representative program. There are currently 33 Invisible Illness representatives at universityies all across the country. These reps aim to promote The Invisible Illness at their school and encourage students to talk about mental health in general.
