I'm like an open book. When it comes to my opinions, lifestyle etc. But when it comes to mental illness I do not say much. I always took pride in not being fearful, going against the grain when it was needed. I don't tell people. The only thing I hide more is being transgender.

I can't see much change for the better here. There are still hope for other humanitarian causes. This one... not so much. Here people talk about how violent and criminal we are. Yet, no one, focuses on the fact that one of the biggest risk factors of being a victim of a crime is having mental illness.
