Hi Nike. I admire your inspiration to make a voice for those of us who suffer. Yes there is a great stigma to overcome, but it can be done. I am just coming to grips of suffering with depression to go to counseling and therapy. I didn't want the label attached as being mentally ill. Yet depression is not always a person's fault, nor the other maladies we all suffer with. I think this is a great goal, worth pursing. Maybe you can address how we can make the transition from being labeled to being equal? I don't know if that idea helps. Perhaps quoting medical journals and facts to educate the public on? Just my thoughts. Good luck.
