πŸ”₯ THIS IS A RALLY CRY. NOT A WHISPER. πŸ”₯MENTAL HEALTH IS A FIGHT WE CAN’T AFFORD TO LOSE.Depression. Anxiety. Panic attacks. Mental illness.
They don’t discriminate. They don’t wait.
They hit hardβ€”and they hit everyone.
If it’s not your fight, it’s someone you love.Too many suffer in silence. Too many don’t make it.We need to do something!🎀 Craig Jamieson, Canadian musician and survivor, has lived the struggle.
He’s lost people. He’s felt the darkness.
Now, he’s raising his voiceβ€”and advocating for change.β€œI felt alone. No one understood. The pain was unbearableβ€”and the help I needed just wasn’t there. At times, it nearly broke me.”But he didn’t stay down. He roseβ€”and now he’s rallying us all to rise with him.HERE’S THE TRUTH:πŸ’‘ Mental illness is realβ€”and it’s treatable.
