Stories forever waiting to be told
22 years ago I was inspired by the patients beside me in the mental health ward. Observing their stories console, heal, and change hearts for all within hearing distance. For those 22 years, I carried the concept of a book that would consist of first hand stories from within the mental health community - so we could continue to help one another, our allies, and those who don't know how to support us. As of yesterday, the first contribution was finished and the process to accept submissions for stories and artistic work (drawings, art, photography) has been created. Contributing the first story was incredibly soothing and I'm excited to make this book happen. If this post resonates and you're interested to contribute? Hit me up. Truly, my reason for sharing today was that I wanted to celebrate this milestone with all of you! Sending huge hugs - V
