NAMI (National Alliance for the Mentally Ill) is hosting Mental Illness Awareness Week October 4-10, 2009.
Be sure to check out the NAMI website for info on mental illnesses, medications, outreach, up to date news and more.
If there's anyone you haven't told about your mental illness that you think you can, now's the time. I realize many people don't want to share because they are afraid of stigmatization but it's never going to stop until people realize that lots of people are affected by mental illness and it's not their fault.
