Drawing the Line on Stigma

Focus on the people who inspire you❤️🌈

You never know what people are going through and sometimes the people with the biggest smiles are struggling the most, so be kind

If you or someone you know has BPD, DID, or any other major mental health concern, my nonprofit, Borderline Personality Disorder Support Group, is now hosting FOUR support group meetings a week on Zoom! We will also start hosting meetings on Discord soon as well !

Meetings are FUN and INFORMATIVE! We talk about a different topic each week.

There is NO END TIME for the meetings. I like to let people talk for as long as they need to.

You DON'T have to have your camera on, you DON'T have to talk until you feel comfortable. These meetings are non-judgmental and safe for everyone!

If you have ANY questions at all, please feel free to text/call me at 414-949-1408, or email me at [email protected]. Also, contact me if you need help figuring out the time zone differences. All meeting times are Central time, but just let me know if we need assistance!

I SUPPORT YOU ALL 1000%🖤

What's meant to be will truly find a way

What are you waiting for? Get out there and f'ing do it!

I urge you all to read my article "The Empathetic Revolution (That Will End Mental Health Stigma)." In it, I discuss mental health stigma and concrete ways to stop it. I would very much appreciate feedback! Thank you!
