Say it Out Loud

We at SOVA design our blogs to give you information on mental illness in manageable portions that you can grasp. What really counts, though, are people’s stories. Our hope is that SOVA lets you share your experiences with others, and that together we can form a network of peers who can provide support for each other as you negotiate your mental health challenges.

This video below—from NAMIOk2talk.org, and SAMHSA—shares the story of a few young adults about what it’s like to live with mental illness, and how they think of it not as a condition that defines them, but an experience that makes them stronger.
